Hi,
For testing whether the frame is shown, you can simply use frm.IsShown()
>>> my_frame.IsShown()
True
>>>

[here shown with a shell connected to that frame]

To intercept closing the window using a clicks on the "x icon" catch
the respective event
wx.EVT_CLOSE

Check the sample e.g. in
http://wiki.wxpython.org/wxPython%20by%20Example
"Adding an Event Handler"

(wxPython-specific questions may be rather discussed  on that maillist:
