pygtk + threading.Timer

[Dmitry Teslenko]

Hello!
I have simple chat application with pygtk UI. I want some event (for
example update user list) to have place every n seconds.
What's the best way to archive it?
I tried threading.Timer but result is following: all events wait till
exit of gtk main loop and only then they occur.
Thanks in advance

Thanks. That's exactly what I need.
