- Hello,
-
- Using DECWindows/mwm and VMS 5.5 the command
-
- CERATE/TERMINAL/DETACH/INPUT=disk:[dir]EXIT.COM
-
- where EXIT.COM contains the single line
-
- $ EXIT
-
- when started from the session manager gives me a process that just loops
- eating all my CPU time. Selecting "Exit" from the "File" menu on the
- DECterm gives me a process without a DECterm that just loops etc.
-
- Should I consider this a feature?? Relacing EXIT with STOP/ID=0 helps a
- lot, but... Any (other) suggestions / explanations??
-
- --- Allan.
