If configured with the --enable-threads flag, Tcl can + now be compiled for use in a multi-threaded application. + Individual threads are allowed to use one or more interpreters as + long as each interpreter (and any slave interpreters) is only + accessed by one thread. Each thread runs its own event loop, and + you can post events to other threads. There are new C APIs for + mutexes, condition variables, and thread local storage. See the + doc/Thread.3 manual entry for more details. Tk 8.1 is not yet + multi-thread safe. There is not yet support for tcl level use of + threading except for a test command.
