That's certainly true, and it was the reason for introducing Idle's 
feature to execute scripts
in their own subprocesses with Python 2.3

Despite of this I like to use Idle when working interactively with the 
turtle module and
also when developing small programs as it is much more comfortable than a
cmd-shell window. But I reglularly run them (during development)
from the 'normal' Idle (or from a cmd-shell) to assure that effects like 
those you mention
below are not present.

Does anyone have experience with using IPython with Tkinter?

Gregor
