First, you can do that with the callback parameter.
jQuery("div").hide("slow")
.wait()
.addClass("done")
.find("span")
.addClass("done")
.end()
.show("slow", function() {
$(this).removeClass("done");
})
But to create a wait() function, I think you have to create a lock/
semaphore (a simple counter), incremented in jQuery.anime (or anything
that create a timer callback?), decremented at the end of the anime,
and tested in the wait() function.
