Not sure what you mean by "while loop." In an event-driven paradigm, one technique would be to set a timeout event that fires every so many ms. Then in the event callback, you update the widget according to the new value of the variable. At least this is how i'd do it in Qt or GTK. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
