You can put this line throughout your code or in a loop to update pending events (This is also good to use for updating progress bars.)
# Run the main loop as long as events are pending Gtk2->main_iteration while ( Gtk2->events_pending ); You can also use POE (Perl Object Environment) which allows your program to multitask.

What I've done is 'clicked' signal_connect from Gtk2::Button will execute the application and save the output into a Gtk2::TextBuffer which will be displayed in Gtk2::TextView. At the moment, if the button is pressed, the whole GUI will 'freeze' and after the application execution is finished, the complete output is displayed. My question is, how can it be done so textview will be updated in real time with the console output instead of waiting the whole execution to be finished. Many Thanks! _______________________________________________ gtk-perl-list mailing list gtk-perl-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-perl-list
