Re: How to run PyOS_InputHook from python code (i.e. yield to event loops)

I think you want the after function: launch_process_in_thread('bzr pull') self.update() def update(self): while not self.is_done: self.after(2000, self.update) That's tk-specific, right? I'm looking for a snippet that - Would not be tied to tk - Would run sequentially, i.e. the next command would not be entered before the process has finished. Just like os.system() -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
