 *
 * This is a multi threaded application that uses a progress bar to show
 * status.  It uses Gtk+ to make a smooth pulse.
 *
 * Written by Jud Bishop after studying the other examples provided with
 * libcurl.
 *
 * To compile (on a single line):
 * gcc -ggdb `pkg-config --cflags  --libs gtk+-2.0` -lcurl -lssl -lcrypto
 *   -lgthread-2.0 -dl  smooth-gtk-thread.c -o smooth-gtk-thread
