what are the use cases for "Running Script" vs "Exit Script" in Manage Emulators>Details?

I was trying to send "ALT-F4" to close the emulator by dropping it in the "Exit Script" field.  It seems as though that field is used to run an AHK script after the emulator process has exited, since dropping the same script in the "Running Script" field worked as expected.  Is there any documentation on any of this?

Running Script is to run as the game / emulators starts and while running.

Exit Script is to run as you shut the game / emulator down, it runs after you close the game.

So in your example the script has to be there while the game is running so you can use it to actually close the game out.
