What does Tkinter do when Idle ?

[Randall Hopper]

Stephane Conversy:
 |It seems that from time to time (say every 10 s.) , Tkinter wakes up
 |and do something, and then comes back to idle.
 |
 |is it right ?

What OS?  MSWin?  or a UNIX varient?

What clues do you have that something is waking up?  What indicates that
this is your Python process?  Do you have any clues this is Tkinter, or Tcl
specifically, or a callback you've installed?  What Tkinter callbacks has
this process installed?  Any timers?  Is it sufficiently short (< 50 lines)
to post?

More input Stephane!  Need more input! ;-)

(I can tell you I don't see behavior in general.)
