Currently it's not clear how to exit the TEK Proxy. You
just have to close the DOS window that is running in the
background... or, if we hide this window, it is totally
invisible to user unless you bring up a task manager.

Actually, what's wrong with letting it run all the time?
Saman made the point that the OS will just swap it out
whenever it's not in use for a while. Maybe
an exit button would confuse the user?

For the initial release, let's revert to running it in a
window instead of running in the background. This way
the users can see some debugging output in
the window, and they can close the window if they need
to. But this functionality would be easy to add if desired
at some point.
