Quit Option

[Michael_McLaughlin]

I'm sure the QUIT options have been chosen accidentally many times, causing a great deal of lost cpu work.

I suggest that the quit option be removed from the right click menu of the display screen.
It is not clear that it closes the folding program. I see no purpose or need to close the folding program from the display screen. Change it to "close display".

Also the "quit" option on the ICON right click should display a message asking if you want to end the folding program NO YES

IIRC, that is handled at the system level not the application level.

Are you sure?

It's folding@hpme's ICON and display screen I am referring to.

What forum addresses "system" concerns?

I believe that's the only clean way to shut down the GUI F@H without crashing the app and losing the work done to that point. While I know there are checkpoints set, my experience running on WinME and 98 showed that power fails or blue-screens usually meant a full restart. Doing it again from 98% is frustrating.

Now you know it's there -- don't do that!

Cheers.
