Ok, I'll check in my fix for it, then.  I removed that if statement  
at the top, and adjusted the mouse if statements to be
	if (evt.dev != NULL && ...
to prevent the null pointer errors.  Now my tiki apps quit when I  
tell them to!  I should have some fun stuff to show off in  
TikiSquares in a few weeks :)

Mostly it's sluggish, and the tabbed interface is kind of quirky.  I  
actually hadn't realized how slow the OS X terminal is until I  
started coding on win32 again.. i fired up putty to connect to my  
linux box and there was noticeably less delay between hitting a key  
and seeing the letters.  Kinda like GNOME Terminal vs xterm I guess,  
eye candy = slower.

Is VS8 .NET or the one after it?  I should see if my college's MSDNAA  
site has the latest version before they disable my account (I haven't  
attended in over a year, but they haven't gotten around to deleting  
the account yet :) ).  I'm still working on VS .NET, which is pretty  
nice too, especially with the Ankh SVN plugin.
