When I use withdraw in a Tcl/Tk (or Perl-Tk) script to hide a window and
redisplay it later using deiconify and raise (or Popup), the window
becomes
visible immediately but it's contents are drawn 2 or 3 seconds later.
Without withdraw, the contents appear without delay.

The problem only appears in fvwm-2.3.x, 2.2.4 works fine.

Here is a small script that shows this behavior.

---------- snipp! ----------
#!/usr/bin/wish

wm withdraw .
button .b -text OK -command { exit }
pack .b
update
wm deiconify .
raise .
---------- snipp! ----------

Cheers,
