 * FILE: multiThread.h
 *
 * ABSTRACT: Enable IPC to deal with multi-threaded programs.
 *           Mutexes loosely based on David Apfelbaum's THREADS package.
 *
 * REVISION HISTORY
 *
 * $Log: multiThread.h,v $
 * Revision 1.1.1.1  2004/10/15 14:33:15  tomkol
 * Initial Import
 *
 * Revision 1.2  2003/04/20 02:28:13  nickr
 * Upgraded to IPC 3.7.6.
 * Reversed meaning of central -s to be default silent,
 * -s turns silent off.
 *
 * Revision 2.1  2002/01/03 20:52:14  reids
 * Version of IPC now supports multiple threads (Caveat: Currently only
 *   tested for Linux).
 * Also some minor changes to support Java version of IPC.
