(Minor flamethrower on....)

1) You get your TP 5.5 Reference guide. 
2) You look in the index on pg 454 under "exit"
3) You refer to the various references under that entry. 
4) Read said references, study them, figure them out.
5) Write code applicable to your project.

Sorry for the sarcastic nature of this response, but if people would 
spend a *little* bit of time looking in the index then net.bandwidth 
wouldn't be wasted by questions that could *easily* be answered  if 
you took a few minutes to look at the bloody reference guide! That's 
what it's there for! So use it!

(End of minor flame here...)
