    I'm using Windows Millenium. I think there must be some kind of
problem with Windows and the Gtk signal handlers.

  task type cell(init: access location);

  type type_access_cell is access cell;

   (...)

   procedure HandlerBotonComenzar (Widget : access
Gtk.Widget.Gtk_Widget_Record'Class) is
    -- Crea una c�lula que ser� la encargada de crear todo lo dem�s
     t:  type_access_cell;
   begin
     t:=new type_access_cell;
   end HandlerBotonComenzar;

Until t has not completed its execution, the windows do not update.
(and in the body of the task type cell it updates the window, but it
does not appear in screen after the tasks have died).

Thanks for your help
