Plus other widgets of similar functionality like my Macintosh
ProgressBar.
Also it has a bug - I copied and pasted your sample code and the bars
run to
the left and disappear. Only one remains.
YUP. So, one is left with questions like did *I* make a mistake is
trying to create a working example, or is there a real bug?
My two cents --
What most apps really need is a "non-blocking" threaded or IPC'd
activity
bar. This way when a routine is really taking a long time - we can
popup the
bar just beforehand without having to worry about it not updating. Any
comments on how this could be done cross-platform?
Been thought about (at least here ;), but seemed like a lot of work,
rather than just requiring, say, a few update() calls. That said,
perhaps "we" should actually start such a project/widget *and* merge
features of all the progress bars widgets ...

Ever wanted to display a rotating barber pole in your Tk app?
Me neither :)
But here's a Tk::BarberPole widget anyway. It should appear
on my CPAN directory soon:
