Extended close confirmation

[Vladimir-csp]

Hi! Please extend close confirmation:

Ask confirmation when closing:

• never
• always
• if process is running in terminal

[jleclanche]

A confirmation should only ever happen if a process is running, so the config item is unnecessary. Is it possible to do?

This is related to #144.

[jleclanche]

Not really.

I referred to my comment:

Is there a way to figure if there is a running foreground-process in a tab? We could add an additional confirmation dialog if there is an active process.

If we have a way to figure out if there is a running process, we can create a confirmation dialog that can be used for both issues.

this is the problem - how to get running process info for various platforms...

Sakura has a reliable implementation that works on Linux and FreeBSD.

Also #509 is related. Maybe exit warning option could be made into a checklist:

Warn on exit when:
[ ] child process(es) running
[ ] multiple tabs open
[ ] always

Is 'always' option really needed?

And also the prompt do not show when closing the tabs, the prompt is rised only for the first tab or main window.

I don't use close prompt but if it's useful, it should be shown:

1. When closing the main window; and
2. When closing a tab; and
3. When collapsing sub-terminals.

However, this report is about showing the prompt when a process is running.

I have some free time now, let me try to do it

I have change the behavior form so the askOnExit is more configurable but not sure how to check out that a process is running or not. I guess it needs that a qtermwidget issue must be resolved to achievement the goal.
