title: Using Python, how to stop the screen from updating its content?
body: <p>I searched the web and SO but did not find an aswer.
  Using Python, I would like to know how (if possible) can I stop the screen from updating its changes to the user.
  In other words, I would like to buid a function in Python that, when called, would freeze the whole screen, preventing the user from viewing its changes. And, when called again, would set back the screen to normal. Something like the Application.ScreenUpdating Property of Excel VBA, but applied directly to the whole screen.
  Something like:
  FreezeScreen(On)
  FreenScreen(Off)
  Is it possible?
  Thanks for the help!!</p>
