Today I tried to run an application with gnuplotlib on a Windows machine and had to add following patches to make it start.
I still see problems with the polling as under high load the threads probably fire too late but this is a first idea how to solve synchronization for all platforms with one solution.
If this not desirable (
select.select
is much more elegant) I'd think of modifying the synchronization so this solution is used for Windows (and other platforms which don't support select() and file objects.
