Hi folks,
Sometimes I click the "X" on the emacs window decoration by mistake,
emacs will exist without any prompt/waring when there are no file
changes in all opening buffers. I want to know if there are anyway to
make emacs ask to confirm to exist on this situation? Generally I used
to exist emacs by "C-x C-c". If I click the "X", this should always be
a mistake.
Thanks in advance.

I use this:
(add-hook 'kill-emacs-query-functions
(lambda () (y-or-n-p "Do you really want to exit Emacs? "))
'append)
That lets you click the X to delete a window, but if it's the last window, then
you are queried to confirm that you want to quit Emacs.

(setq confirm-kill-emacs 'yes-or-no-p)
If you want to be prompted by the "X" but not by, eg C-x C-c, you'll
have to do a bit more work.
