#21 Show something when a GUI app crashes
If a GUI application terminates with an unhandled
exception, it is just imediatelly closed. It doesn't
say that "Hey, I have crashed!" or anything or
anything, it just suddenly vanishes. Very confusing for
the user. I guess this is because Sun's javaw is an
trash (not Launch4J). Still, it would be nice if
Launch4j provides a workaround by optionally popping up
an error box if javaw terminates because of unhandled
exception. It would be even better if it can show the
stack trace in a scrollable edit box. If it is possible
somehow...

I use a hack that solves the problem, but never thought
about integrating it with Launch4j. I'll see what can be done.

There is such a thing as a unhandled exception handler in
Java, why not use that? The only problem which you can't
handle with Java is an actual VM crash.
