[Laszlo-dev] best way to close the browser window from a Laszlo app?

[Henry Minsky]

Yeah I thought about doing that, there's a firefox 'kill' remote command
that's supposed to work, on
unix anyway. I don't really want to relaunch the browser for each test, it
seems like that would slow things
down too much, although it would be  more hygenic.

I'll try this profile hack, I'm giving it a 50% chance of working.
