#1343 wgnuplot --persist becomes zombie when "help" command is used

[Anonymous]

I use Windows 7 32bit and confirmed the bug both on gp465-win32-mingw-rc2.zip and gp463-win32-setup.exe

How to reproduce the bug:

• Create a script (named test.gp here) with the following content

  help style
  exit
  

• Run "wgnuplot --persist test.gp", then a help windows appears.

• Close the help window.
• Run Task Manager to see wgnuplot process is still there. It should be terminated.

Thanks for the report. What you are describing is caused by the fact that there is no plot window open, as described here:
