2.3.12. - Exiting
A spec session is normally terminated by
typing
^D
at the start of an input line.
As of release 3.01.04, the
quit command will also terminate spec, but only when typed directly from the
keyboard or when read from a command file.
The
quit command can't be included in a macro.
As of release 4.02.04, if there is a
macro named
end_mac defined, it will be run after the
^D
or
quit command.
When exiting, spec saves
the user's state, and if any motors are moving,
waits for them to halt and
then updates the
settings
file.
If spec appears hung, typing the
quit
character (often
^\)
should terminate the program.
If spec is waiting for unresponsive hardware to indicate it is finished
with a move or a count, typing the
quit
or
interrupt
character again may be necessary.
