Re: [Visualpython-users] Mouse events handling and getting the prompt back

[Bruce S. <Bru...@nc...>]

If I understand correctly what you're trying to do, no, I don't think 
it's possible. The only way to process events is with a while. However, 
note that you can process keyboard events, not just mouse events, which 
might give you part of what you want.
