Note that you can also call wxIdleEvent::RequestMore(true) to get
another idle event. Note that doing this uses 100% of the processor so
be sure to call it only when you really are processing, but the
application will be responsive. This is a standard way in wxWidgets to
process something without using threads and have a cancel button
usable.
