keep on top of what?

to keep on top of another window of the same application,
use the "transient" method.

    toplevel.transient(mainwindow)

to keep it on top of any other application, you need to call
the proper Windows API function from a python extension
module.  to find out the HWND for a toplevel window, use:

    hwnd = string.atoi(toplevel.frame(), 0)
