wx/tk remote engine results in constant high CPU usage

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Hi,

I use latest PyScrippter on XP, with Python 2.7

When I set wx or tk remote engine, CPU usage is constantly high regardless I 
don't do anything in editor. If I use "just simple" remote engine there is no 
issue.

Cheers

The wx and Tkinter engines use a thread that continuously checks for messages 
between pyscripter and the engine, so that the main thread is not blocked.  
Apparently this loop takes some CPU time despite the fact that there is a sleep 
command in the loop.

OK, I just read FAQ about matplotlib and then set remote engine to wx, when I 
noticed this "issue".
I guess I could set engine to wx or tk only when I intend to use interactive 
mode

Thanks for explanation
