       The _e_x_i_t command ends the user's current GRASS session and
       returns the user to the directory in which he was  working
       prior to entering GRASS.  When the user exits GRASS, he is
       asked whether he wishes to save the files and data  stored
       under  his  current  mapset,  and  (if  maps  are present)
       whether the user wishes to selectively remove map  layers,
       before  exiting	the  system.   By  default,  if  the user
       presses RETURN without responding to these questions,  all
       maps  in  the  user's  current mapset are saved.  However,
       because such maps can consume much storage  space  on  the
       computer, the user should remove any unneeded files before
       exiting.  (The user can also remove data before attempting
       to _e_x_i_t GRASS using the _g_._r_e_m_o_v_e command.)


       Before  typing  _e_x_i_t,  the  polite user should remember to
       release the graphics display monitor  (using  the  command
       dd..mmoonn  --rr)  for	use  by other GRASS users. Otherwise, the
       display device may be locked for use  by  the  user,  even
       though  the user has exited GRASS, until another user runs
       _d_._m_o_n and unlocks this monitor for others' use.


       Each  time  the	user  re-enters  GRASS,   the	variables
       described  in  _g_._g_i_s_e_n_v	are re-set. If the user wishes to
       change the mapset, location, or data base on which  he  is
       working	(i.e.,	those affected by any GRASS programs run-
       ning during the user's current GRASS  session),	the  user
       must _e_x_i_t GRASS and then re-enter GRASS and specify a dif-
       ferent mapset, location, and/or data base location on  the
       GRASS  start-up page. When the user re-enters GRASS, these
       variable settings (the current mapset, location, and  data
       base)  are set by default to those used in the user's pre-
       vious GRASS session, unless changed by the user.

NNOOTTEESS
       This program requires no command line arguments; the  user
       simply types eexxiitt on the command line to exit GRASS.
