I've been force-quitting the IDE as my standard so long that I don't give it any thought . . . the frequency with which it gets lost, beachballs, or whatever is high enough that I usually don't even try a plain quit.
Anyway, as I'm being advised that the standalones that people are testing are needing force quits, I recalled that there seems to be something that frequently stops the quit, even when the IDE is behaving. I also found that at least sometimes, turning messages off allows the quit to happen quickly. There isn't any code that should be intercepting the quit or shutdown requests, but I'm wondering if the period handlers could be somehow blocking this? e.g., ones like on doIt doSomething send "doIt" to me in 100 milliseconds end doIt This means that there are always messages in the queue; is the engine waiting for that to empty, or do i have something more awkward on my hands? -- Dr. Richard E.
