Actually, I've tried ALL of these things, and none of them work. I HAVE run the simple for-print-sleep test code to try to determine if this issue was specific to wx (that's good troubleshooting, folks - you narrow down the problem) and even that didn't work, so I thought I'd start with the simple problem first. Sorry if you were mislead.
As for wx, I HAVE used the for-setColour-refresh-update-sleep loop, still no dice. The last thing the I put in the loop works (again, as if all the changes are being queued) but the sleep just 'takes over' the loop and nothing happens until al the sleeps are done. With or without wx. Not good. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
