This happens with all the examples I installed that handle code to quit the app.

I just read somewhere that the issue could be because I was trying to run these examples from within Idle.  However, when I try to run them from the terminal, I run into another snag:

andrew at andrew-Satellite-P755:~/Programming/Python$ python tut8.py 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "tut8.py", line 16, in <module>
    from PyQt5.QtWidgets import QMainWindow, QAction, qApp, QApplication
ImportError: No module named PyQt5.QtWidgets

...a path issue?
