When a process is locked to a thread, output from the process can only be accepted by that thread. </p> <p>A Lisp program can specify to which thread a process is to be locked, or instruct Emacs to unlock a process, in which case its output can be processed by any thread. Only a single thread will wait for output from a given process at one time—once one thread begins waiting for output, the process is temporarily locked until <code>accept-process-output</code> or <code>sit-for</code> returns. </p> <p>If the thread exits, all the processes locked to it are unlocked. </p> <dl> <dt id="process-thread">Function: <strong>process-thread</strong> <em>process</em> -</dt> <dd><p>Return the thread to which <var>process</var> is locked.
