This stuff is crazy.   I tried posting on some MS "help" pages, and the "MS
experts" suggested I use Alt-Space then C, which breaks the standard that Alt-F4
closes everything, like hitting the big red X.


I found a workaround. http://www.autohotkey.com/download/
AutoHotKey is a free download that makes use of the
Windows key in conjunction with another letter.

So you start AutoHotKey (I made a desktop shortcut)and when
the Windows key is pressed with the k (for kill) key the
active program will close if it's cmd.exe or another app.
(repeats). Stays resident until you close it or shutdown.

Win-key with k-key
Sends the keystrokes: alt, space, Shift C to make a capital C.

#k::send ! +C

cut and paste into the kill.ahk file; I read the quick tutorial.

Stephen
