Right on... I did miss that part. I'm obviously new to GTK but not to
threading and I'm having a hard time wrapping my brain around this for
some reason.

I cleared up the warning messages, however I am still hung up; I've
pasted a sample below. When I click the 'Start' button it freezes and
I'm not using threads, although I think it should be set up to run
them. I'm unfortunately the only developer in my shop so I can't get
another pair of eyes to look at this and I've been driving myself crazy
all day. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
