the PythonWin IDE doesn't work properly when you're running programs that
does their own Windows event handling. this is a problem with PythonWin, not
with Tkinter or your program. to solve this, you can either
1) check if you can make PythonWin run the program in a separate process
2) explicitly run the program in its own process (using "python.exe" or "pythonw.exe"),
from the command line.
3) switch to an IDE that runs Python code in a separate process (such as IDLE,
Wing, and most other modern IDE:s).
