Michael,

Wonderful, thanks to you and rms! (I use Windows and Linux.)

Luckily the windows profile already had a _custom_ profile which was
enabled, which gave me the clue to move CloseOnLastDoc down there and
change the 1 to a 0. (But it also works to change the 1 to a 0 in the
builtin scheme, as long as you change the selected scheme from custom to
builtin.)

<Snippets from the file, for future reference (when I forget how to do

        <Select
            scheme="_custom_"
            autosaveprefs="1"
            useenvlocale="1"
        />

        <Scheme
                name="_custom_"
                CloseOnLastDoc="0"
                />

Thanks,
Randy Kramer
