I'm a zope-digest member and thought your problem was so trivial that I
didn't respond. But now I think I should.
If you'r using a Unix or Linux operating system and you start the Start
script like this:
prompt>./start <enter>
or
prompt>/Web/zope/start <enter>
Than the output zope generates is attached to the window in which you
started zope.
When you want to start zope in Debug mode, but want to be able to close a
window, you should make sure the Zope proces is pushed to the background,
like this:
prompt>./start & <enter>

Problem solved...
