Threads

[Shashank Date]

I am trying to write a simple threading app in Python 2.2 (on Windows) which
will spawn mutiple threads.
Each thread will go out on the web (various web sites) and fetch certain
documents. The main thread will wait for all the threads to terminate OR
some external event (like deletion of a file). If the external event fires
before termination of child-threads it kills all the spawned threads and
terminates.

Any ideas how to go about doing this.
