**EXIT**

(Used only from within CMD/DO files.)  EXIT terminates a CMD or DO file, and is only needed when you would like to terminate it somewhere other than the physical end of the file, usually in conjunction with a conditional statement involving IF. 

**Example**

if "\$0" = "" then

:<Usage:

    .INFO fname

\>

exit

endif

versys \$0

dir/f \$0
