- NAME: DIE
-
- SYNTAX: DIE
-
- DESCRIPTION:
-
- Tells the display module to quit and unload. Any outstanding messages
- sent by the display module but not yet replied to will cause the display
- module to delay its demise until all replies have been received and
- replied to, or until a REALLY_DIE message is received.
-
- The REALLY_DIE message should only be necessary during the debugging
- of a script or program, or if unusual conditions cause a script or
- program to exit abnormally before it can reply to a message from the
- display module. The normal sequence of operations would be that the
- script issues a DIE command, and then terminates. If the display module
- does not terminate and if it prints a message to the CLI about having
- outstanding messages, you should run killdisp.rexx or killrobbs.rexx
- to terminate it.
-
- EXAMPLE:
-
- DIE
-
- That's it... simplest command of the lot.
