NAME
exit - terminate process
SYNOPSIS
exit(status) int status; _exit(status) int status;
DESCRIPTION
Exit is the normal means of terminating a process. Exit closes all the process's files and notifies the parent process if it is executing a wait. The low-order 8 bits of status are available to the parent process. This call can never return. The C function exit may cause cleanup actions before the final `sys exit'. The function _exit circumvents all cleanup.
