Console unresponsive while Turtle window is open

Question

The exit command I have written is:

user_input = input("press Q to exit:")
if user_input == 'q':
    exit()

In this case after launching the program I have to minimize Turtle Window and go back to terminal and press Q there and press enter to terminate it. How can I implement it so that I can simply press Q to close window. Is there a way to maybe mode around the command turtle.exitonclick?

Answer 1

1) Set Turtle Screen :

screen = turtle.Screen()

2) Make Function :

def close():
    exit()

3) Bind Key:

screen.onkey(close, "Q")
screen.listen()

so final look will be like this:

import turtle
screen = turtle.Screen()
turtle = turtle.Turtle()
def close():
    exit()

turtle.forward(100)
turtle.left(90)
turtle.forward(50)
turtle.left(90)
turtle.forward(100)
turtle.left(90)
turtle.forward(50)
turtle.left(90)

screen.onkey(close, "q")
screen.listen()

turtle.getscreen()._root.mainloop()
