Which Gui toolkit do you use? Python has several. (Tkinter, pygtk, pyqt,
wxwindows, etc.)

Also, post a trimmed-down code example which shows the problem.
Diagnosing problems is much easier (and often only possible) I we see
exactly the same code you are having problems with.

Judging from the few info you gave, I guess the problem is that you save
the contents of the textbox after every keypress. Obviously you only
have to save when the user is finished, and clicked on a button or
pressed enter.
