  There have been a few patches now posted to the list for "installing exit to
  dos", one of them at least very long.  What I don't quite follow is this:
  the Turbo environment has a Q)uit command (which politely checks for you
  whether your text and code have been saved), and Turbo Pascal has a HALT
  call.  What, therefore, is this exit?

  Now, if somebody could provide a way of enabling the command eX)ecute 
  in the Turbo environment, as it's described in the manual, that would 
  interest me quite a bit -- unless, of course, it's provided in Turbo 4.0, 
  in which case the features and problems of 3.0 will no longer concern me.


  Thank you,
