+## Basic thread support for Nimrod. Note that Nimrod's default GC is still
+## single-threaded. This means that either your threads should not allocate
+## GC'ed memory, or you should compile with ``--gc:none`` or ``--gc:boehm``.
+##
+## Example:
+##
+## .. code-block:: nimrod
+##
+##  var
+##    thr: array [0..4, TThread]
+##    L: TLock
+##  
+##  proc threadFunc(c: pointer) {.procvar.} = 
+##    for i in 0..9: 
+##      Aquire(L) # lock stdout
+##      echo i
+##      Release(L)
+##
+##  InitLock(L)
+##
+##  for i in 0..high(thr):
+##    createThread(thr[i], threadFunc)
+##  for i in 0..high(thr):
+##    joinThread(thr[i])
+
+
+# We jump through some hops here to ensure that Nimrod thread procs can have
+# the Nimrod calling convention. This is needed because thread procs are 
+# ``stdcall`` on Windows and ``noconv`` on UNIX. Alternative would be to just
+# use ``stdcall`` since it is mapped to ``noconv`` on UNIX anyway. However, 
+# the current approach will likely result in less problems later when we have
+# GC'ed closures in Nimrod.
