    I am writing some GnuEmacs Lisp procedures which I would like to
run in the background, thus allowing user I/O to be processed in
normal emacs fashion while the lisp procedure is still running.
Normally, emacs appears to postpone processing of input until the
current task is done. Has anyone else run into a similar situation or
know of a solution? Thanks in advance.
