Coroutines for C using Lua?

[Patrick <patrick@...>]

Hi List

I have a C application half written. It uses gtk and gstreamer. It plays 
a video and then pauses the video and prompts a child to try to 
pronounce a word.

Now I am thinking about redoing the logic of when the video is paused. I 
am thinking about writing one long lived Lua function, wrapping the 
C/Gstreamer/GTK as a Lua library and then calling it from Lua. I am 
thinking that if I use coroutines I can avoid locking up the GUI with a 
long lived function call.

Does this sound logical?
