OK, now I see your problem. You set new color for the button, and
don't really allow GTK to redraw it. I.e. you change color variable,
but actual widget is not updated. Moreover, as your program is in busy
waiting, the user can't interact with it.
Let's think busy waiting is by design. Now you need to update your
button, in other words, you want to process all pending events. This
can be done by adding the following code at the end of your while()
loop:
while(gtk_events_pending())
gtk_main_iteration_do(FALSE);
This will do gtk_main iteration for all pending events, then let you
continue your outer while() loop.
