 I'm sorry, my mistake. It's not enough to send idle event to the app
object, in fact you need to tell it to generate idle events for all
windows. This is done by calling wxTheApp->ProcessIdle() and, although it's
still untested, at least I had a good look at the code this time and it
seems that it really should work.

 Please let me know if it still doesn't and sorry for the first wrong
advice,
