: : : The spec says that if DeleteWindow is called and there are no windows in the window list to do nothing. Is it ok if I print out a one line error message?
: : for what reason ? id rather you didnt do that.
: : look at it this way ... when u reboot your computer, does it print an error if there are no windows to close ?

: continuing on this general topic; I wrote my program with alot of nag messages, such as "are you sure you want to delete" and whatnot, would you rather that I not did that at all?
well, there is a big difference between seeking confirmations (which is good) and presenting the user with unnecessary errors ...
