[Image-SIG] that's enough

[Jack Uretsky]

Hi all-
 	I suspect that my phrasing was a distraction.  There is a python 
command that brings up an X11 window.  Is there a python command that make 
the window go away?
 	This is a general question, independent of the particular context 
of my program.

 				Regards,
 					Jack
