run mel on exit

[mark_wilkins]

well, you could always make a menu item or shelf button that called the "quit" command after doing whatever you wanted to do specially...

I don't know if there's a more direct way than that.

You could use scriptJob "quitApplication" event:

scriptJob -e "quitApplication" "runMyScript";

You can put that line into userSetup.mel so you don't have to run it every time manually (and you're sure you wanna run your backup scripts every time you exit Maya).
