Hi,
I have Wine installed on Ubuntu (8.04 and 8.10) and there's a thing that
bugs me for some time.

When I have unsaved document in any wine application (like notepad) and
I log out or shut down the PC, Wine application doesn't offer me to save
the document, it just kills everything. Can something be done about it?

My google-fu failed me on this issue. Any info appreciated.
Thanks,
Hugo

A fair question. I've filed
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16188
for this. There is a protocol Wine can use to
be informed by X about these events, we just have to
support it and translate it into the corresponding
Windows messages.

Thanks!
