Escape button

That's very annoying issue. If an user has several windows open in EViews, a current window should be closed after pressing escape button. It's annoying to clicking on "X" if there are dozens of windows open. Sometimes is just faster to close EViews and and reopen it. The "escape option" could be programmed in such a manner that it will close any window but not the workfile. Or, alternatively, the user could define in settings whether or not allow the escape button to close also the workfile.

EViews does support the Windows standard CTRL-F4 shortcut for closing windows.

The main menu entry Window/Close All Objects can also be useful in this setting.
