Theading problems in IDLE

[Nir of the Waves]

I noticed that in some circumstances IDLE does not behave right with multiple threaded scripts.



Is this problem known?

When exactly is this problem triggered?

How do I avoid it?

How do I work around it while still using threads?



IDLE 1.0.2, Python 2.3.3



Thanks,

Nir

I've noticed that the print statement is not threadsafe
under IDLE. I either write output to a file, or run from the
command line to avoid this.
