           Summary: New behaviour of wineconsole (Alt+F4 emulation by [x]
                    button pressing) causes problems with FAR manager
           Product: Wine
           Version: 1.2-rc2
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P1
         Component: -unknown
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: ozerski at list.ru


In 1.2-rc2 under KDE 3.5.9 (Mandriva 2008.1) an incorrect behaviour of FAR
Manager 1.70 is found. This problem is new, even 1.2-rc1 has it not. FAR
manager is a win32 console norton-like file manager wich can be used under wine
using wineconsole. Like other two-panel file managers, FAR supports own hot
keys which not always are the same as the standard hot keys in MSWindows. E.g.,
Alt+F4 is for FAR not a command for closing but for editing a file. In native
MSWindows, there are exist two ways to terminate FAR: 1) F10 key causes
"internal" terminating of application with a prompt dialog, auto-saving of
preferences etc. 2) Clicking on the Close button [x] on the top of the border
of console window causes terminating of FAR immediately (that can be useful to
preserve default settings etc). Before the last WINE release-candidate the
behaviour of WINECONSOLE was the same as of the native MSWindow console and I
could quickly terminate FAR using KDE-made [x] button. Now clicking [x]
(Standard Close Button on the right-top of KDE window containing WINECONSOLE)
causes an emulation of a pressing of Alt+F4. At result, the FAR manager does
not terminate but opens a current file for edit. That is a wrong behaviour wich
can cause different problems for console applications with non-standard hot
keys (Maybe, introducing a possibility to customize the handling of the
standard WINECONSOLE buttons could be also a good solution).
