If you need more accurate, repeated timeouts, use Fl::repeat_timeout() to

reschedule the subsequent timeouts. Please see Fl::repeat_timeout() for

it is not possible to call Fl::flush() from a subsidiary thread,

Fl::awake() is the best (and only, really) substitute.

It's \e not necessary to wrap calls to any form of Fl::awake() by Fl::lock() and Fl::unlock().
|

Nevertheless, the early, single call to Fl::lock() used to initialize threading support is necessary.

|

Function Fl::awake() in all its forms is typically called by worker threads, but it can be used safely
|
||||
by the main thread too, as a means to break the event loop.
