Subject: Wisdom of ExitToShell in a ShutDown proc
Message-ID: <4143@hub.UUCP>

In the process of debugging a ShutDown proc, I have told the debugger
to 'es' (ExitToShell) a number of times. This has the curious but not
surprising effect of restarting MultiFinder and all her default
applications. Does anyone know if it would be a safe or wise practice
to allow a user to ExitToShell from a ShutDown proc?

(Questions about why I want to do this should be directed to mail;
obviously doing this is not congruent with any intuitive understanding
of The Interface; I may do it anyway.)
