Re: Idle func -> 100% CPU usage

Gert,
	You might consider using a gtk_timeout function, basically a timer
but it only runs while the gtk even loop is running.  You could set
it to whatever you want 20ms say, and thus it will call your function
every 20ms while the gtk main event loop is running.  This way all gtk
stuff will be serviced prettymuch normally with nearly top priority, and
you will pretty frequently call your tk function.
