Observed on macOS 10.14.5 with Python 3.8 from python.org, and with latest master branch.

Reproduction:
1. Open IDLE
2. "New File" (Cmd-Shift-n on macOS)
3. Quit using Cmd-q ("Quit Python" from the menu doesn't cause this!)

The exception traceback:
Exception in Tkinter callback
Traceback (most recent call last):

I see the traceback I reported on #37524, whichever way I close.  In both cases, EditorWindow.close is called and we get an AttributeError because a file has become None. close() calls maybesave before _close, so the exception I see happens before _close is called.  It is possible I have seen this, before the #37524 errors started.  See latter for possible fix.

Doesn't reproduce on Win10 with current master.

This also happens on Ubuntu 18.10, with a traceback similar to that reported on issue #37524:
