def sleepprinter(*args, **kwargs):
    print(args, kwargs)
    for q in range(7):
        print("sleeping")
        time.sleep(1)
    messagebox.showinfo("Thread Ready", f"Results Ready - check: c.results ")
    return "bab"


top = Tk()
top.geometry("100x400")
c = ExecuteAsThreadedTask(fu=sleepprinter, args=("baba", "bbu"), kwargs={"oi": "badxx"})


def threadCallBack():
    c()
    messagebox.showinfo("Started Thread", str(c))


def threadCallBack2():
    c.killthread()
    messagebox.showinfo("Killed Thread", str(c))
