Thanks. I just skimmed over lambda before now...

When I read your post, I realized I'm doing 
a crude animation. After a bit of searching 
on 'python canvas animation', I found a 
reference to how it's done:

I made my 'root' Tk instance global, and 
call root.update_idletasks() after the 
.put

It works great! Now back to the lambdas 
(Ralph the Wonder Lambda, Earl J Lambda, 
Mike Q Lambda III, et al?).
