I'd prefer it to be a separate thread due to its time-critical nature.
Although, I must admit this is my first attempt at creating such
application, compounded with the first GUI-app creation, so I am trying
to tackle a lot of problems at the same time. That being said, I am
going to stick with my current design until I get the app up-and-running
to a point I can claim it is "useful." Following that, I'll most likely
sourceforge it and from then on, the sky's the limit :-).

Does it have to be a seperate thread?  Why not use GTimer?  e.g:

GTimer *timer=new GTimer(this,"timer");
connect(timer,SIGNAL(timeout()),this,SLOT(timer_handler()));
timer.start(interval);

Cheers!
