Thanks for that. I had already implemented my awful hack: sneakily
ensure that sys.stdin points to the current script, that way tk won't
think it has to show the console :-).
I'm going to replace my hack with this suggestion.

That's the one I meant.
Now that I have the attention of someone that actually knows
something about tk :-)... This[1] document mentions I can implement
support for open events by implementing the tk
function ::tk::mac::OpenDocument. Do you know how I can implement
such a function in python?
And a last question for now: is the look&feel of the latest tcltkaqua
universal release[2] more OSX-HIG compliant than the version shipped
with OSX? The L&F of IDLE really sucks right now, I have fixed the
easy things (menus, statusbar) in my local tree, but know to little
of tkinter/tcltkaqua to fix the rest (dialogs without title bars,
foreign looking tabbed view in the preferences window, window
background isn't striped, ...) in a reasonable time.
