NoExit is a small Windows(tm) 3.1 program that disables the CLOSE option on
the system menu of designated Windows programs. This is useful when you do
not want to accidentally close an application by inadvertently double-clicking
on the system menu.
An application that has had the "CLOSE" option disabled by NoExit can
be terminated:
1. Via the EXIT option on its FILE menu (if it has one).
2. Via other, application-specific means (e.g. some other menu choice).
3. Via the "END TASK" option on the Task List.
4. By exiting Windows (drastic, but effective).
You identify the applications that NoExit will operate on by adding a NoExit
section to your WIN.INI file. A typical NoExit section looks like this:
.
.
.
[NoExit]
target="Program Manager","File Manager"
.
.
.
This NoExit section will disable the CLOSE option on the Program Manager and
File Manager. You identfy a program to NoExit by placing the main window title,
in quotes, on the "target=" line, or by placing the targets window class name
on the "target=" line.
When NoExit runs, it locates all identified targets that are currently running and disables
the CLOSE option on the system menu.
NoExit can be placed in a program group and executed at any time by double-clicking on the
NoExit icon; it can also be placed in WIN.INI as the last item on the "run=" line, so
target programs that are automatically loaded and/or run on the "load=" and "run=" lines
can be automatically disabled.
NoExit exits immediately after executing.
