On the contrary, the concept of a uvconfig switch that defaults to the way it currently is would be superb.
If we're going to go on in life never changing anything because it was always done that way... a working resolution works as long as you know to add a quit.

I don't think you want to open up a can of worms like this. If there is a working resolution, especially as simple as putting QUIT in the phantom paragraph, then I wouldn't change it. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Glenn Herbert" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Tuesday, December 07, 2004 8:11 AM Subject: RE: [U2] Universe ON.EXIT FWIW, back at rev 8.3.3 when this issue was first raised, it was decided that we could not change this behavior as it might affect existing applications already out in the field that did NOT expect the ON.EXIT to automatically run at close of a phantom. The resolution on this was that the user can simply add QUIT as the last command in their phantom, which would force the ON.EXIT to run. When this issue was again raised at 9.3.1.1, it was given as an 'enhancement', which at that time, meant you wouldn't ever see it. If we had even looked at it, we would have probably come to the same conclusion as earlier; we could NOT change behavior if it would have impacted existing applications. I know its not an answer, but it is some history on this event.
