Pyscripter 2.5.3 denies the exit() request of Tkinter programs generated with SpecTCL, on Windows

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Install Python 2.7.6 on Windows
2. Install Pyscripter 2.5.3
3. Install SpecTCL ( http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/spectcl )
4. Call SpecTCL. A minimal GUI is created. Save this GUI as 
"spectcl_helloworld.ui". It does not matter if you add contents, so a button 
with manually added "exit()" callback code does not work too. 
5. SpecTCL creates the files "spectcl_helloworld.py" ( may be executed ) and 
"spectcl_helloworld" ( is not intended for execution ).
6. Load and execute a Pyton script "spectcl_helloworld.py", with Pyscripter on 
Windows
7. Press on the [x] button of the window frame

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Expected: 
- The Python program closes, the TCL GUI interface disappears - as it is true 
if I do it by Command.com shell
Instead: 
- The python program is closed ( so the Pyscripter is active again, especially 
the Python interpreter window ), but the TCL GUI interface stays on the desktop 
screen.
- To make the TCL GUI interface disappear, I must quit Pyscripter.
- If I try to call and exit a classical, more simple TCL application 
"hellotcl.py", Pyscripter works properly and deletes the TCL GUI interface. So 
there is something wrong with the generated code of SpecTCL, what Pyscripter 
does not like...

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
OS: Windows 8.1
Python: 2.7.6
Product: Pyscripter 2.5.3
