ProDOS 8 v. 1.9 has been released to software publishers, and
should be appearing on disks in your neighborhood any time now. It
does indeed include its own mini-launcher quit routine, somewhat like
Bird's Better Bye or Squirt. The launcher requires an enhanced //e or
later; I think older Apples get the old "ENTER PREFIX..." quit code
installed.
There is also a BASIC.System v. 1.4.1 with a small bug fix.
P8 1.9 is incompatible with GS System Disk 5.0.2 only in the
sense that you can't go copying it onto your System Disk and expect
them to work together. You never could "mix and match" P8 and GS/OS
versions like that. The next GS System Disk release will no doubt
support (and include) P8 1.9.
