Closing an application window

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/Closing an application window

Specifically on Windows...

Is it me or does anyone else have the effect of not being able to close an applications window by using the Close Icon ( red X ) in the title bar or by using ALT+F4 ??

Maybe its been discussed before? but I cant find anything. Maybe it's deliberate?

I have fixed it to work on my machine, real easy - just delete the message handling from the message loop that supposed to handle closing the window, but I'm wondering if anyone else has experienced this?

While Not (KeyDown(KEY_ESC) Or AppTerminate())
