Summary: WindowList.py: fix win98 quit.

Initial Comment:
WindowList.py: when the last idle window is closed quit() 
the mainloop.

Sometimes on Windows 98 Idle fails to terminate the 
mainloop if all the
windows are closed. I.e. no more TKinter windows are 
visable but you are
left with a python.exe dos box running. There is no good 
way of terminating
this on Wind98 because ^c does nothing and the task 
manager is very
rudimentry.

I have been running this change on my Win98 box since 
my first day runing
idlefork with out any problems. Mainly because waiting for 
the python
process to be killed was _really_ annoying!
