In my continuing quest to make my GEM dialogs co-exist with desk accessories,
I noticed something that didn't come up earlier in the discussion.  It helps
a lot to do an evnt_timer(0, 0); just before starting the dialog handler.
That way other people's queued redraws get done BEFORE your dialog starts, 
not during it.
