Description

When closing any TeXmacs window using the window manager close box, the currently active window (or last active if all TeXmacs windows are inactive) will be closed, regardless of the window that actually received the click.
Procedure

1.

Open TeXmacs
2.

Select "File->open new window"
3.

Move the new window on the screen to be able to distinguish it from the other window
4.

Click the close box of the first (inactive) window, the other (active) window will be closed.

Discussion

Stephane: We should not worry to much of this bug per se. Yes the wrong window is closed, but the TeXmacs session is still alive which was the main and critical goal of the fix bug - Delete event kills TeXmacs. This is really caused by a an architectural problem discussed in discussion -- scripting, queued command. This shortcoming makes indeed my fix of bug - Delete event kills TeXmacs an incomplete one.

David: I agree. This is nevertheless a bug, so it belongs here, at least as a reminder of a visible probles, and also to inform careful though little informed future bug reporters that the problem is known. If we want more hands and eyeballs, we need to be as transparent as possible to make easier for new people to join the team
