Re: [pygame] Not Quiting

So what you're saying is run IDLE separately from my program (don't click on "Edit With IDLE") and doing something.  I don't know what you mean- cutting and pasting the program into it?  It can't be hitting F5 because that opens a new IDLE window.  What DO you mean?  Anyway, that seems harder than just 
running the program by clicking on its file (i.e. double click "program.py").

Your terminology is confusing the issue.
What you're asking, I think, is "isn't there an easy way to execute my
program when I am editing the code within IDLE?"
Yes, you just use F5.
But the _manner in which you open the code in IDLE_ is what determines
if a subprocess will be opened.
Don't open your code by right-clicking the file and choosing "edit."
open IDLE by a shortcut or directly from the directory in which it's
installed.
Then load your code from there.
