Since there may be some cleanup associated with closing a window (i.e.
closing a file, disposing of memory) that is specific to each
application, TaskMaster just returns a 'wInGoAway' code when the user
clicks in the close box.  The 'wmTaskData' field of the event record
will contain a pointer to the window that needs to be closed.  If the
window is one of your own, just do whatever cleanup is necessary and
then call CloseWindow.  If the window is not yours, just pass the
window pointer to CloseNDAbyWinPtr.
