MacOSX Run Loop vs Tcl (FSEvents)

[SM Ryan]

Is there code or examples on how to adapt MacOSX run loop
events to run with Tcl dispatch? I'm particularly interested
in the 10.5 FSEvents.

if you buid tcl with --enable-corefoundation (default), the tcl event
loop is CFRunLoop based (c.f. tcl/macosx/tclMacOSXNotify.c), i.e. any
thread with a tcl interp will have a runloop running, so you can just
add your runloop sources (custom or system provided) to the runloop
you get from CFRunLoopGetCurrent() and your sources will fire as
events become available for them.

can't about those in a public forum, but everything should just
work...
