Try opening a Window at the beging of your program and when you quit the game, close the window.

Okay, well, then open the default (I'm doing this), or, I don't recomend it but, use GUI, OR, if you use quit, make an if statement which checks for the error and then choose whatever action,. I hope that made snese...

i don't think it gives you an error exactly, it just highlights the quit line because that's where the program stopped.  

to close the default window, you have to use a Window.Open at the start

you can do it like this:
var winID := Window.Open ("graphics:500;500,title:Window Closing,nobuttonbar")
var keys : array char of boolean

loop
    Input.KeyDown (keys)
    exit when keys (KEY_ESC)
end loop
Window.Close (winID)
