Let me sum up:

* In the beginning of each button click callback you call a function to
make the buttons insensitive (even the clicked one? protection is
needed here also),

* in the end of each button click event you start an idle function (by
the way do you start the same idle function for all buttons? if so, how
did you make sure to not start it twice?)

* the idle function make the buttons sensitive again after a delay

* the idle function is killed when the program exits


Did I get you right?

Thank You!
