That was the difficult part of designing Claw, as we did make Claw safe for 
multi-tasking in the same way that the predefined Ada libraries are (Claw 
routines are reenterant so long as the objects passed are "not 
overlapping" - we have example programs which show tasks writing into 
separate windows or controls simultaneously). You wouldn't have had to spend 
much effort to mix multi-tasking with Claw (although call-backs can't be 
blocking, so there is some problem with communicating between tasks). Of 
course, Claw is only for Windows (at least right now).
