I'm adding an indeterminate progress bar to an old bit of code that hogs the

animates the progress bar doesn't fire. Is there a simple call somewhere
that I can add at various points in the process that will allow the timer to
fire (but not the main event loop processing)?

EventAvail would be sufficient.
