I am having problems with using system calls in a InterViews program.  I would like to map a transient window containing a simple label glyph before a system call and unmap the window when the system function returns.  Is there any way to do this whithout tampering with the InterViews event loop?  I would appreciate any suggestions or alternate means of notifying the user that they must wait for a system call to return.


					Thanks for the help....
