Quit if in use
« on: December 17, 2007, 08:58:43 pm »

I would utilize a new feature of simply adding an "Exit" button to the read-only database message.  If I see that MC is open on another computer with my database, I'd like to stop opening MC, close it myself, and then open again.  Now, I have to wait for it to copy the database and then manually close after the delay.

Write a script which checks for the existence of "lock.jmd" in the db folder before starting MC. If it exists, you can just have the script quit out. If it doesn't, let MC do it's thing..
