... and stopping

Once having learned how to start you must learn how to stop, just like the apprentice sorcerer. You can stop the programming environment by giving the quit-command


#litout482#

where upon you are asked for a confirmation


#litout484#

The possible answers (as elicited by the help-command) are <#322#>y<#322#> and <#323#>n<#323#>. Upon answering


#litout486#

the quit-command does nothing and the confirmation message disappears from your screen. Upon answering


#litout488#

the programming environment halts and returns control to the system on which it is running. Upon quitting, the program that is then in memory is forgotten (but of course all programs that have been written to a file are retained).
