I am talking about the Java program as a whole. Alt-f4 terminatges GUI 
programs on Windows. What is the corresponding keystroke o n the Mac? 
The subcommands will usually start the GUI in special modes, such as a 
bare-bones text editor. So if a user hits alt-f4 I suppose the jre will 
throw an exception. I want to catch that exception and try to terminate 
gracefully. Can I do it in the main method?
