Hi all,

BUG: When a user accidentally closes the plotting window, SAC will crash.

$ sac
 SEISMIC ANALYSIS CODE [09/04/2008 (Version 101.2)]
 Copyright 1995 Regents of the University of California

SAC> fg seis
SAC> p
[ ... closing plotting window ... ]
SAC> Seismic Analysis Code (SAC): Fatal IO Error 11 (Resource
temporarily unavailable) on the X server

Attached please find a patch for SAC 101.2 (provided by George
Helffrich and adapted a little by me) to prevent this by disabling the
"X" (close window) button of the plotting window. To apply this patch:

$ cd /path/to/sac
$ patch -p1 < prevent-accidental-close-of-plotting-window.diff

Best regards,
