Detecting a click on the turtle screen when the turtle isn't doing anything?

Note that the code you posted does not call onclick().  Globals are confusing IMHO.  Code becomes cleaner and easier to write and read when you become familiar with classes.

import turtle

class TurtleTest():
    def __init__(self):
        self.ctr=0
  
        t = turtle.Turtle() 
        s = turtle.Screen() 
        s.onclick(self.clicked)
        turtle.mainloop()

    def clicked(self, x, y):
        print self.ctr
        if 0 == self.ctr:
            self.first() 
        elif 1 == self.ctr:
            self.second()      
        elif 2 == self.ctr:
            self.third()

        self.ctr += 1

    def first(self):
        print "first called"

    def second(self):
        print "second called"

    def third(self):
        print "third called"

TT = TurtleTest()
