Any ideas?
What do you mean by "real time"? The after method in tkinter will call the routine after the specified time. If you want to do it again, you must arrange for the routine to call itself again with a further after. So it is perfectly possible to make a stutter thread that executes periodically. In which way does this not work for you? - Hendrik -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
