Returning from Tk

Strangely I have experienced what he's talking about. Even with
widget.quit() to break out of the mainloop it freezes Python's enviroment.
IE you have to kill the IDE or the interperter forcefully and restart it to
continue. The Tk widgets disappear but the macos window is still there
although beit blank and you cannot get rid of it or use anything else in the
Python IDE. I don't know if this is us newbies missing something or an
undocumented feature :) Ideas would be welcome. :)
