	//	- Save any state the user expects saved (for example text).
	//	- Release all resources that are not needed.
	//
	// Execution time in the stop state is limited, and the limit is
	// enforced by the operating system. Stop as quickly as you can.
	//
	// An app that is stopped may be started again. For example, the user
	// opens Recent Apps and switches to your app. A stopped app may also
	// be terminated by the operating system with no further warning.

	// Stop is equivalent to onStop() on Android and
	// applicationDidEnterBackground on iOS.

// can be opened with Open("img.png").
//
// On iOS an asset is a resource stored in the application bundle.
// Resources can be loaded using the same relative paths.
//
// For consistency when debugging on a desktop, assets are read from a
// directoy named assets under the current working directory.
