Re: Delayed show()

Ah, AH! Found it! 

Sorry to answer my own post, but just to bring this thread to 
a neat closure, and to perhaps enlight other newbies who might have the 
same question:

And the solution consists of writing:

	$alert->show;
	$application->processEvents;
	do_stuff();

where $application is the main Qt::Application.
