timer or idle function ? HOWTO ?

[Jason LaPenta <lapenta_jm yahoo com>]

Hello, 

I would like to use the gtk_idle_add() function,
but I'm not sure how to have widgets updated w/in
the function. Does anybody have an example I
could look at? 

Also, why does the "clicked" signal get sent when
I call gtk_toggle_button_set_active()?

Is there some widget or something that will send
out signals periodically so I can update the
screen ever 1second or so with new data?

Thanks
