Yes, that is correct, otherwise simply hitting alt f4 a few times will close
open windows, really not that hard, depends on what kinds of windows you
would like to close though.

By the way Alex, is it really necessary to say windoze? Sorry, it just
really upsets me as it seems immature and I believe a few weeks ago somebody
was yelled at for bad mouthing the mac on this list; we are supposed to lay
down our feeling for one side or another and help each other on this list.
The Evangelist would be where I would expect to see the windoze stuff, not
here.
