  Hey all.

  I've run into a snag with my game I'm making.  Basically, the way it =
knows time has passes is through a loop.  The problem is, that for =
debugging purposes I made it print the iteration it was going through, =
and when I remove the print option the game goes too fast.
  So I thought I'd use the sleep function in the time module.  This was =
a loss however, it would do all the iterations in the loop and all the =
sleeps before it actually DREW anything on the canvas (gotta use a =
canvas).
  The thing I'm really asking for is a Python command which will make =
pythoin pause for a little bit (the times allowed in sleep were fine) =
but doesn't produce a nasty side effect like sleep does.  If you need to =
see the code I will post it.

  Thanks,
  Glen.
