The problem is not specific to using ZnClient, it is with every loop you execute in the UI thread: the Transcript output is not updated (as it is the UI thread itself that has to do the drawing). For example, try 1 to: 10 do: [ :i | Transcript crShow: i. 5 seconds wait ]. The solution is to run you long running code in another thread, like this [ 1 to: 10 do: [ :i | Transcript crShow: i. 5 seconds wait ] ] fork. HTH, Sven
