[det]in_pce_thread(:Goal)
Assuming XPCE is running in the foreground thread, this call gives background threads the opportunity to make calls to the XPCE thread. A call to in_pce_thread/1 succeeds immediately, copying Goal to the XPCE thread. Goal is added to the XPCE event queue and executed synchronous to normal user events like typing and clicking.
