“You have 6 processes running, do you want to review them before quitting?” 
[confirm[ etc

The processes are bash

FWIW I tried to build gnome-terminal and xfce4-terminal both of which did not succeed.

I’ll try sleep and shutdown once a week to claim leaked memory etc, I always though fvwm was a dog, now I miss the  ability to not have an [Exit] button.

Thanks all
