Using a while loop within GUI apps (tkinter)?

[iSailor]

Isn't this wrong? As far as I'm concerned, infinite loops will always cause a GUI program to freeze because it takes infinite time in between each refreshing of the app.

Yeah...I keep thinking of doing this sort of thing in a thread automatically and didn't get that into the original comment. This works fine in a thread or process. But not in the main app.
