                                  Usage
To terminate a MacAnova run, type 'quit'.  On a windowed version, 
you will be asked if you want to save the workspace and any
command/output windows.

quit() or quit(T) has the same effect as 'quit'.

quit(F) means you want to quit unconditionally with no opportunity to
save the workspace or windows.  On a version without Windows, it is no
different from quit(T).

It is an error for quit to be part of a compound command (enclosed in
{...}) or for there to be anything other than a comment starting with
'#' after it on the command line.

'stop', 'end', 'bye' and 'exit' mean the same as 'quit'.

                                 Example
Example:
  Cmd> quit  # or bye or stop() or end(T), etc.

                      Quitting in windowed versions
In a windowed version, you can also select Quit on the File Menu. 
You will be asked whether you wish to save the workspace or the
command/output window(s).  On Mac OS 9, if you hold down the Option
key while selecting Quit or hitting Return after typing 'quit', you
quit unconditionally without a chance to save files.
