What you will need to do is trap the fact the applications button was
clicked after the EvtGetEvent call. Then before you do anything else, you
will want to set up a flag to break out of your event loop. You have to let
the system process it, because pre OS 3.0 the launcher was a system dialog
(your application is actually still "running" behind it, just like you had
called a modal dialog of your own). What happens in the launcher is that if
your application is chosen, it will simply go back to where it was. If
another application is chosen, then you will get an appStopEvent. In OS3.0,
the launcher dialog was done away with and replaced with a real application.
