[PyQt] pausing and resuming QThread tasks

[Massimo Di Stefano]

Hi,

i'm tring to modify the code you pasted
using the suggested modification, but i'm not able to run it
with a "working" pause action.

Can you point me to a working version, 
i'm tring to learn from it.
It is a cool example to learn how to use thread in PyQt

Thanks a lot!!!

Massimo.
