Thank you Michael for your tip for implementing repeat. I had seen that posted elsewhere, but thought maybe there was a better way to do it. I implemented it successfully, but was hoping for a way to do it that didn't involve repeating the 'Tkx::after' command.
I guarantee you that under the covers, the 'repeat' subcommand in Perl/Tk was just using Tcl's 'after' as well. There are ways in Tkx to have all widgets recognize this if you want, but I don't think that makes the best design because it makes translation and future upkeep harder. After all, isn't it better to have a global 'repeat' function?
