If you want to pass arguments to a command called when a button is
clicked, you have to use 'lambda' in tkinter.

You can't expect a delay to happen during the mainloop() of the
program. To interrupt the mainloop(), use: parent.after(n,someCommand)
Where 'n' is some amount of milliseconds. Just have the parent widget
or the root frame call it.
