Scilab's console, i guess not the shell terminal.

Graphics are not modal: AFAIK it is not possible to lock the console 
with a figure until the figure is closed (or until any other event)(you 
could use a for loop waiting for an event ; but it won't reject CTRL-C 
interruptions).
However, to close automatically Scilab when the figure is closed, you 
may add the following in your script:
gcf().closerequestfcn="exit(0)";
