I guarantee you that under the covers, the 'repeat' subcommand in 
Perl/Tk was just using Tcl's 'after' as well.  There are ways in Tkx to 
have all widgets recognize this if you want, but I don't think that 
makes the best design because it makes translation and future upkeep 
harder.  After all, isn't it better to have a global 'repeat' function?
