Workaround to lack of modality when quitting in OSX

[Barry Levine]

Ken,

Yes, that's exactly what I'm saying. There is obviously some 
OS-specific code somewhere which is causing this. Whether it is the 
engine or one (or more) of the "support" files (and I use that term for 
lack of a better understanding of the seamy underbelly of Rev), 
compiling your stacks into an app in Windows -for- OSX creates an app 
whole Quit menu item (on the app menu) does nothing when a modal dialog 
is presented to the user (which is correct). It behaves exactly as the 
OSX Mail.app program does when a modal dialog is "up". The "Quit" item 
is enabled and selectable but it does nothing ("doesn't trigger").

Regards,
Barry
