Well, for example, U can create a fust GUI'. User interacts with your program interface stuff AND you does not handle his (users) requests –
U just queue them. Another thread read from this queue and update the
GUI perfoming actions (wich may take long time, tty work for example –
but user does not want to WAIT). This is useful in RT programs
