It seems as though it wouldn't be terribly difficult to implement - just
close the current document, save its name to a global variable or somesuch,
and set a flag 'DeleteLastDocument'. Then let the user open another document
and add a bit to the Open function checking the aforementioned flag, and, if
necessary, deleting the last document.
pseudo:
DeleteThisDoc(docname) {
lastDocument=docname;
delLastDoc=true;
}
OpenDoc(docname) {
if (delLastDoc) {deleteDoc(lastDocument);}
...
}

because Windows doesn't delete all files with the same creator code when you
tell it to delete one document, unlike the Palm AppLauncher ;-)
