XtToolkitThreadInitialize(3Xt)XtToolkitThreadInitialize(3Xt)NAME
XtToolkitThreadInitialize - initialize the toolkit for multiple threads
SYNOPSIS
Boolean XtToolkitThreadInitialize()
DESCRIPTION
If XtToolkitThreadInitialize was previously called, it returns. The application programmer must ensure that two or more threads do not
simultaneously attempt to call XtToolkitThreadInitialize; the effect of this is undefined. XtToolkitThreadInitialize returns True if the
host operating system has threads and the Intrinsics are thread safe.

XtAppAddSignal(3Xt)XtAppAddSignal(3Xt)NAME
XtAppAddSignal, XtRemoveSignal, XtNoticeSignal - register and remove a signal source
SYNOPSIS
XtSignalId XtAppAddSignal(app_context, proc, client_data)
XtAppContext app_context;
XtSignalCallbackProc proc;
XtPointer client_data;
void XtRemoveSignal(id)
XtSignalIdid;
void XtNoticeSignal(id)
XtSignalId id;
ARGUMENTS
Specifies the application context. Specifies the argument that is to be passed to the specified procedure when a signal has been raised.
Specifies the ID returned from the corresponding XtAppAddSignal call. Specifies the procedure that is to be called when the signal has
been raised.
DESCRIPTION
The XtAppAddSignal function initiates a mechanism for handling signals within the context of the Intrinsics. Prior to establishing an oper-
ating system dependent signal handler the application may call XtAppAddSignal and store the returned id in a place accessible to the signal
handler.
Upon receipt of a signal from the operating system, the application may call XtNoticeSignal passing the id returned by the call to XtAp-
pAddSignal.
XtNoticeSignal is the only Intrinsics function that can safely be called from a signal handler. If XtNoticeSignal is called multiple times
before the Intrinsics are able to invoke the registered callback, the callback is only called once. Logically the Intrinsics maintain
"pending" for each registered callback. This flag is initially False and is set to True by XtNoticeSignal; the Intrinsics invoke the call-
back whenever the flag is True, and the flag is set to False just before the callback is invoked.
The XtRemoveSignal function is called to remove the specified Intrinsics signal handler. The client should disable the source of the signal
before calling XtRemoveSignal.

Hi Folks,
Today hasn't been the best one of my career in IT.
I've been a contractor for a major utility company for a number of years, on a number of seperate IT contracts mostly Unix. The company had 10 different flavours of unix and multiple different varsions of most of them.
