--------------------------------------------------------------------------
This function is the proper method of terminating a program in DOS
versions 2.0 and above. It closes all files, and hands control back to
the parent process (usually COMMAND.COM), along with the return code
specified in AL.
Notes: The return code may be tested by means of Function
4Dh or the DOS ERRORLEVEL command.
