I just double-checked and there is no title bar on the About dialog box.
You can resize it but not minimize/maximize/close using buttons in the 
(inexistent) title bar.
The main JSwat window has the title bar, though.

BTW, same problem (lack of a way to close the dialog) happens with the
dialog that 
opens in response to the commands:
  - Windows | List
  - Options | Evaluate
  - Breakpoints | List 
	(this is redundant, isn't it? Same functionality as the one in the 
	Breakpoint panel in the SW corner of the main screen).

No problem. Thanks for looking into this.
