I am trying to create a music that can play outside of the GM default media player. The file type is minipsf2, and can play effectively in winamp.

execute_shell("C:\Documents and Settings\HP Owner\Desktop\03 - City of Bells.psf2",1)

This code pulls up the Music: 03 - City of Bells, and plays it in Winamp if the default 'open's with' function for psf2 files is Winamp.

The problem lies to stop this program when ESC is pressed. However, I don't believe there is a function for this.

Any help is appreciated!

Nope, there most probably isn't. Once executed with execute_shell that stays so. I see your problem though.

I think that if you execute another Game Maker file though and used the embed DLL with that you could embed the program in it at start and then let esc end that file. The program will hopefully go down with it.

Do you get me?

The OS doesn't really allow programs to access each other like that. It's a security issue. If I could make a program that could control other applications on your computer, don't you think I could really mess some things up?
