In RPCEmu0.8.9/RO 5.19, ctrl-shft-f12 leads to a window saying that 'the
computer is now ready to be switched off' and gives the single option to
'Restart'. Presumably the OS has allowed running applications to quit,
so that closing the emulator window, at that point, is safe.
However, in RPCEmu0.8.9/RO 4.39 - my apologies, I now see that I was
mistaken in my previous post - ctrl-shft-f12 leads to a window giving
the options Off/Restart/Shutdown/Cancel. It is clicking Shutdown, which
leads to 'the computer is now ready to be switched off' so, in itself,
ctrl-shft-f12, doesn't put the machine in a safe state for its window to
be closed. I suppose that the same would apply to RO 4.02.

If RO 4.02 is similar to RO 4.39, it should lead to 'the computer is now
ready to be switched off', so it seems that there _is_ a problem.
