We use XRT widgets here, which are 3rd party Motif widgets, and they
provide a progress bar which has a similar behaviour.  The progress bar
itself takes control of doing the actual redraw, but one of the problems
is that when you're putting other widgets up also, they don't get drawn
until after the progress bar is finished (100%).  My question is, would
this be a problem in gtk if the progress bar could update itself, or does
using the localized event processing 2 liner mentioned in previous posts
alleviate the problem so that the progress bar is drawing itself but other
widgets can also respond to events?  Did that make any sense at all?
