[Jprogramming] Getting rid of busy form of waiting

[robert therriault]

The demo's provided under the Studio Menu in JHS are really the thing to study for this. Start with demo1 and be ready to use some web skills, as that is the basis for the JHS front end.

I still think that Gosi's page from the NYCJUG is a really good starting resource.
