"File"->Close
and
"Program"->Exit


does anyone see any source of confusion there? I don't. your point is mood,
dan, exactly BECAUSE of the "Program" menu.

what mess? wanna bet they dig it the second time they try? don't you think
this "mess" is WAY less messy than having one "close"  and one  "quit"  item
in the SAME  menu? (look at a random windoze app for an example)

dude, there is exactly  one person arguing against the Program menu here and
that is you. I just got an e-mail from bowie in response to the Prog/Program
discussion saying basically that he wondered how many people it would take
to convince  me - gotta bounce  that question right back at you.
