This is regarding Steven Yi's preliminary implementation of multi-threading multiple instances of instrument templates in Csound. This currently uses pthreads. Right now, threading on Windows for Csound uses native Windows threads. It would simplify completion of multi-threading if Csound on Windows also uses pthreads (there are freely available LGPL pthreads libraries for Windows which in fact are already being used for other purposes in Windows Csound).

If there are no objections, I will change all threading in Windows Csound from native Windows system calls to pthreads. That should enable evaluation, testing, and perhaps even use of the multi-threaded instrument templates in Windows Csound.

This also would slightly simplify the maintenance of Csound.

Regards,
Mike
