Java terminal/command line

[sb89]

I have a Java program that runs on the terminal. Is there any way of calling code when the user closes the window just before the terminal closes?

i believe you can use the addShutdownHook, i think thats what you on about. To execute some code when the terminal window is closed or its stopped using Ctrl + C

Try that ;)

Don't think you'll be able to as you could add code to make unclosable windows by making a new one when the old one is closed?
