this is a slightly modified version of a response from the other day using
win32process.beginthreadex() instead of thread ...

# ------------------------------
import win32process
import time

def Func(id, numSecs, incBy):
    val = 0
    while 1:
        print id, val
        val = val + incBy
        time.sleep(numSecs)
        if val > 10: break
    return 1

if __name__ == '__main__':
    a = win32process.beginthreadex(None, 0, Func, ("First thread", 1, 2), 1)
    b = win32process.beginthreadex(None, 0, Func, ("Second thread", 1, 3),
1)
# ------------------------------

is there anyway to capture the return value?  i need to run several
simultaneous large computations, but i would like to capture the returns ...
i think?  do i not? can anyone give some suggestions on where to look?

thanks
