Hey Jonathon,
You should be able to insert a exit(0); command in your code
somewhere that will cause the whole process to quit.  You could
even throw up a widget that says something like:
This Swarm process will quit in 5 seconds unless you hit
the "Wait" button.  I'd suggest you follow the lead of
the Mousetrap application.  Look through the code and find
the part where the message "All the balls have landed." is
printed.  For you, instead of printf();, just put an
exit(0);
