I'm missing something about tkinter updates. How can I give tkinter a chance
to run?
Here's some code:
import time
import tkinter
import tkinter.scrolledtext
tk = tkinter.Tk()
f = tkinter.Toplevel(tk)
st = tkinter.scrolledtext.ScrolledText(f)
st.pack()
def update():
print('updating')
st.see(tkinter.END)
tk.after(1000, update)
input('hit enter to start')
update()
f = open('/etc/services')
for line in f:
st.insert(tkinter.END, line + '\n')
print('got it')
#time.sleep(5)
input('more?')
input('finished?')
When I do this (input('more?'), it works as expected. If I comment that line
out, then the program reads the entire file, then update the window right at
the end, even if I put a sleep in there. What can I do inside the loop to give
tk a chance?
Thanks.
