Summary: Waiting for keyboard or mouse

Initial Comment:
With the idlelib included in Python 2.3b2 I find that

the following simple program "misbehaves" on Windows

but not on Linux:



from visual import *

box()

scene.mouse.getclick()



If with the graphics window open I go back to the edit

window and press F5, the first window stays up (and if

I keep doing this I get lots of them). If I click in

one of these old windows, it closes. 



A similar thing happens with a wait for keyboard input:



from visual import *

box()

s = scene.kb.getkey()

print s



Does this indicate something wrong in Visual that I

need to fix? Or is there some general issue with

idlelib in the case where a window is waiting for

keyboard or mouse input? This problem doesn't occur

with Idle_VPython.
