Thanks Carsten.
Are the changes to the API for 1.9.x documented anywhere?
I can repeatedly update the status bar (I note that you call it a
progress bar - is their a difference?) by doing a oStatus.end before
oStatus.start. But this causes the status bar to flicker back to normal.
I am updating the status bar at each key press, so I want it to run fast
and preferably flicker free.
Thanks, Ian
