To be more specific: Is there a way for a python program to continue running even after it's closed (like automatic open at a certain time)? Or like a gmail notification? This is for an alarm project, and I want it to ring/open itself even if the user closes the window. Is there a way for this to happen/get scripted? If so, how? Any help would be appreciated!

                    Sounds like what you want is for the user to be able to close the window but keep the program running in the background – kylieCatt Jun 16 '15 at 01:51

                    long-running background task, or execute for certain time interval ? – Raptor Jun 16 '15 at 02:30

                    ian is correct and raptor's second guess i think is also correct (pls correct me if not) – Henry Jun 16 '15 at 20:07

            You might want to look into daemon processes and cron jobs.

        Sure you can. You just hide the window without destroying it. It will run for ever until you kill the mainloop itself. Your questing is too broad.
