SLPAA should not open if user doesn't choose either Blank or Load corpus from initialization dialog #202

Closed kvesik closed 12 months ago

kvesik commented 1 year ago

When SLPAA starts up, the initialization dialog looks like this:

There are 4 possible options for the user to click here:

(1) Blank corpus
(2) Load corpus
(3) top-right "x"
(4) "cancel" button

Currently, there are only 2 possible outcomes of clicking any of these buttons:

(1), (3), and (4) all open SLPAA's main window with a blank corpus.
(2) opens SLPAA's main window with the contents of an existing corpus.

However, this is not really intuitive behaviour for (3) and (4). Can we please make the following changes?

(4) "cancel" button should actually be a "quit" button (or something similar-- maybe use QDialogButtonBox.Close instead of QDialogButtonBox.Cancel? see prefab button options in QDialogButtonBox docs)
both (3) and (4) should close the software down without ever actually opening the main window.
