Re: Closing an application

[Alejandro García Rodríguez <agarcia die upm es>]

	Hi, Shiraz!

	Actually I am a newbie in gtk programming but in all my
applications I have used the gtk_main_quit procedure. In all the example
code applications I have seen in the gtk+2.0 tutorial, they always use
gtk_main_quit. I did not know the gtk_exit procedure until you mentioned
it. :)

	I hope that more people, with more skill than me, write to the
list to explain more options. We both will learn.

	Bye!
