Every modern Cocoa application is already multi-threaded. The NSUIHeartBeat is a separate thread that handles the pulsing of buttons, the movement of progress bars, and timers. It does this by messaging the main thread. Fortunately, Cocoa programmers seldom if ever need to deal with NSUIHeartBeat directly...

Thanks very much
