closing an x11 window

I have a larger program that has a PyNGL function that uses the x11 window
to display a grid. Up until now I have only displayed one grid then the
program ended when I clicked on the image. Now I want to put the image code
into a loop (not an animation) but each x11 window stays up until the
program ends. When I click window the image goes away but the window is
still up. I have tired several unsophisticated python and PyNGL things
including the os.wait() and del map but no luck.

Does any one know how to get the x11 window to close with the program still
running? I have not been able to run the examples to see if I can reproduce
the problem with code provided but does any one have a suggestion.

        resources.sfXCStartV = min(grid_lon)
        resources.sfXCEndV = max(grid_lon)
        resources.sfYCStartV = min(grid_lat)
        resources.sfYCEndV = max(grid_lat)

        resources.cnFillDrawOrder = "Predraw" # Draw contours
first.

        resources.cnLinesOn = False
        resources.cnFillOn = True # Turn on contour fill.
        resources.cnLineLabelsOn = False # Turn off line labels.
        resources.cnInfoLabelOn = False # Turn off info label.
        resources.lbPerimOn = False # Turn off label bar
perim.
        resources.mpPerimOn = True # Turn on map perimeter.

        map = Ngl.contour_map(wks,grid,resources)
