John, I apologize. I was mistaken in my question. Under wine it behaves poorly, but that's to be expected. Under XP in a Virtual box, it works as you say. The same in a real Win 10 box. The problem is actually that I was expecting the "No" box to be checked, and to require the user to change it to "Yes" if he really wanted to exit. So, if I press the Enter key to get rid of the dialog box, the program exits.

I can't repro this on Win7 x64 -- what version of Windows are you running? If I hit Escape followed by Enter, it does exit, since 'Yes' is the default choice. But hitting Escape twice doesn't do anything (and shouldn't). -- john Miles Design LLC _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there. _______________________________________________ time-nuts mailing list -- time-nuts@febo.com To unsubscribe, go to https://www.febo.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/time-nuts and follow the instructions there.
