[wxPython] Events Question

Hi

I am confused about how events are handled after reading the docs. My
assumption is that the events that occur (mouse clicks, key strokes,
buttons etc.) are placed in a queue and then taken from this queue and
handled when nothing else is going on.

If my code is in a loop, say
while 1:
  some code

I would like to force the GUI to update all events at some point within the
code. As the code is looping, there is no idle time. I thought that
wxYield might do it but it appears not or maybe I am not using correctly.

Thanks for your help

I'm using the wxYield() in a while loop and it does appear to update the
event loop correctly.
