Hello Jacques,

Ok, I understand, thanks.

I tried following code:

let display_message_without_dialog message =
  let window = GWindow.message_dialog 
      ~message
      ~message_type:`INFO
      ~buttons:GWindow.Buttons.ok
      ~modal:false () in
  ignore(window#show ());
  window

let remove_message_without_dialog window =
  window#destroy ()

It works under "lablgtk2 -thread". BTW, any idea how I could avoid the
"Ok" button and have no button at all?

But it does not work as I would like in my program. The window is not
displayed, because, at that time in my program, the GMain.Main.main is
not yet called. And I can't call GMain.Main.main yet because this call
is blocking and I'm in the processing of doing job to prepare the
windows. Without threading, I think I can't do what I want. :(

But maybe there is a way to schedule some work to be done?

Anyway, many thanks for your help,
Yours,
d.
