Hi,
is there any intrinsic reason why LIST-THREADS stores the currently active threads in *THREAD-LIST*? Since we transmit the actual thread ids back to Emacs, we could simply use them to retrieve the thread objects, couldn't we?
Yes, that would be simpler. I think when we wrote that we didn't have the thread-id function. Not all implementations have a native thread-id function and we need to emulate it.
