Refresh a Tkinter Canvas

Hello, I am attempting to make a desktop clock in Python. I obtain the correct hours, minutes, and seconds and it even draws them correctly, but how can I get my canvas to refresh. Now, the hands just stand still.

Thanks,
Jordan

I don't know enough to help you directly, but I can refer you to Mark Lutz, who in Programming Python wrote Tkinter code for an analog clock. You can read the code at OReilly.com
