Hi all. 

I know we have tread this ground before, but I am trying to clean up my stack 
(i.e. clear the fields), then save it when I close it BY ANY MEANS. That means 
by script, by menu OR by clicking the red dot (of for WIN users the red X) in 
the title bar. I need this to work in the IDE as well as in standalone. 

You would think closeStackRequest gets sent when I click the red dot or X. You 
would be mistaken. 

The dictionary reads, 

The closeStackRequest message is only sent if the request to close a stack is 
initiated by the user (eg by clicking file -> close in the LiveCode menu). If 
the request is initiated from a script (eg "close this stack" ) then the 
closeStackRequest message is not sent.

Apparently clicking the red dot is not considered, “initiated by the user.” It 
ought to be. 

If I use “CloseStack” instead, I cannot save the stack because a script is 
currently running, and I do not want to be presented with the dialog to save, 
do not save, or cancel. I just want it to be saved. I can force quit if I mess 
something up.
