[Qt-interest] Quit vs. Close window

How can I handle a close window command (such as when the user clicks  
the close button) differently than a quit (or exit, if you prefer)  
command? I have made a custom implementation of the closeEvent()  
function to do some stuff when the user closes the window, and this  
works. However, this is also called when you choose to quit the  
application, which I don't want to happen- I only want the function to  
run when the user manually closes the window. How can I implement  
this? is there some sort of flag I can look for that lets me know the  
application is closing? Or a specific signal that is emitted when the  
close button is pressed that is not emitted when the application  
exits? Thanks.
