I have several games for my PC (ATT 6300) that can only be stopped
and returned to DOS it seems by resetting/rebooting the silly
thing.  Things like esc, ctrl-c, ctrl-break, etc... don't
seem to work.  I've thought about writing batch files that call the game
and then can interrupt and return to DOS.  I'm not sure
this'll work anyway.  But, is there a better/easier way or is this just
a problem that has plagued mankind?

Thanks in advance.
