[gtkada] Tasking with GtkAda for newbies

[Preben Randhol]

Hi

I'm making a small reminder app using Ada tasks. I have one task that
reads the appointmenet file and notifies a timer task which I want to
when it is time tell a GUI task to display a dialog. I don't want the
dialog to be blocking the other tasks and I want to be able to display
multiple dialogs.

I was reading the GtkAda and Tasking in the UG and the correspondance on
this mailinglist earlier, but as I'm not very experienced with Tasking
some of it (especially the GtkAda part) went over my head :-)


The following code is naive and does not work, but I include it to try
to show what I want to do.
