print statement and multithreading

[Quasimodo]

Yes, at least on Windows98 it does.  However if mulitple threads are
printing simultaneously you might get the output interlaced.

x='456'
y='EFGH'

e.g. thread1 prints "123", x
  thread 2 prints "ABCD", y

You might get something like this if they try print (almost) simultaneously:

>>> 123 ABCD 456
        EFGH

or any other combination of the above.  The only way I've been able to get
around this (for now, not sure if it will hold true) is to assign the entire
print output to a temp var and then print:

e.g.  temp = "123 " + x     #i.e. temp is now:  "123 456"
         print temp

Maybe someone else knows a better way.

HTH,

Jose
