nothing is bad about using shift. but the question is, how pd should behave if your are NOT using shift, but click on the small X in the pd console window title bar (or a patch) that usually closes a patch or program without confirmation. (unless you haven't changed the document.) new users may want to close the console window not realizing that this closes pd itself. speaking for me, I find this confirmation really annoying. do I really find this annoying every single time! YES! marius.

let me ask the other way? why has pd to behave different than every other program on my computer?
Yes, I also don't understand this ... Although there might be a workaround, newbies (and even me as not
so new newbie) don't know this and are only irritated.That feature also drives me nuts. I think it could be useful, but it
should be something that is a preference that can be controlled by
messages. That way you can turn it on only when you are performing,
for example. Then it would be useful.what's bad about using 'shift'? i don't get it.
