IDL Interface Guide: Introducing IDL |

To quit IDL, do one of the following:
EXIT command at the IDL command prompt.
EXIT procedure has the same function. If Ctrl+D is not the first character, it simply ends the input line as if a return had been entered.
| Note When using IDL's command-line mode under UNIX or MacOS X, you can normally press Ctrl+Z to suspend IDL and return you to the shell process without exiting IDL. After completing any shell commands, type fg to return IDL to the foreground. Although the UNIX suspend character can be changed by the user outside of IDL, this is rarely done. For the purposes of this manual, we assume the default convention. |
