I never tried Bob's Greschke idea of using update() in a callback, because 
of this reason:

I've thought about that from time-to-time too, but I've never seemed to run 
into any problems.  I wonder if it is something like on_button() will only 
be called if the Go button is pushed, and it doesn't call any other 
function, and/or it doesn't generate any other events kindof a thing? 
on_button() is so simple that it never gets itself into trouble?  I use it 
quite a bit like after setting the text of a status message field to make 
sure the message (and maybe a beep) gets displayed, though most of the time 
I call it on the item that I am writing to or working with (like 
Text().update() or Button().update(), and not Root.update()).  B.update(), 
instead of Root.update() will also work in the example program.
