Module thread is always available (at less on platforms where Tkinter is 
available), while Tix in my example is just intended to use the Meter widget 
(a progress bar).

hum, this has not exactly the same effect, after, after_cancel, etc. are for 
scheduling actions in the future, and when the action start, it will block 
the mainloop and user interaction (this is why you need to call explicitly 
the update method), so the gui will not respond anymore.

Finally why do you differ the call of your function after the mainloop since 
it will block ?

That's said, I remember now that there isn't anything in Tkinter  (no events 
or callbacks) to get the  'mainloop started' hook, so you must start the 
thread before the mainloop, probably like this :

class myApp(Toplevel) :

        def mainloop(self) :
                start_new_thread(initFunc, params)
                Toplevel.mainloop(self)
