Summary: After script exit, window doesnt close

Initial Comment:
I have run into trouble with the last several versions
of PythonWin. ( it may always have been a problem).  I
have a script I am developing that uses PyGame to
display some pictures.  Whenever I run the script from
PythonWin, the script can exit normally but the program
window (the PyGame window that is) becomes a zombie. 
It should close at script exit like when I run it from
any other IDE.  In fact, the only way I can get it to
close is by closing PythonWin itself.

This is a known problem, and one that we can't easily fix. 
The problem is Pythonwin is running your app inside
Pythonwin's own process.  I expect pygame doesn't like that
environment.  Another solution would be to run the programs
externally, but in some ways that defeats some of
Pythonwin's benefits.  I'd fix it if I could ;)
