This is because when I try to update the GUI at this rate, all the buttons
hang. I just cant get them working smoothly enough. I am fetching the data
at 100 ms period ( or 1/100 ms freq). at this rate when I try to update GUI
, the buttons like "STOP OPERATION" and "EXIT" and "SAVE TO FILE" are numb
and I just cant help them.

Is there a way I could just do this without threads... i.e. take the updates
from a GUI function and the buttons are still smooth enough??
