Ned Deily <n...@acm.org> added the comment:
The placement of Tk windows is dependent on the version of Tk and platform
window manager. The Aqua Tk version on Mac OS X run as a separate GUI
application process and so, as is customary, the focus and window stacking does
not change when it is launched. The platform-independent way to ensure the
newly-created Tk window is on top is to set the "topmost" attribute on the root
window:
tk = _tkinter.create(os.environ['DISPLAY'], 'wish', 'Tk', 1)
tk.call('update')
tk.call('wm', 'attributes', '.', '-topmost', '1')

I suppose we could add something like that to IDLE on OS X when it creates its
initial shell window.
