# Command: exithook

NEST HelpDesk | Command Index | NEST Quick Reference

Name:

    exithook - Procedure executed if the executive mode is left.

Description:

      The task of exithook is to handle accidental exits from the
      interactive executive session. The most common reason is
      the use of 'exit' when the user wants to quit the interpreter.

      By default, exithook will issue a message and restart the executive
      mode.

      If you would like to quit the interpreter, put the following code
      into your .nestrc file

      /exithook {quit} def

      For debugging it is often useful to be able to access the fallback
      input which has no prompt. For this, put the following code to your
      .nestrc file

      /exithook {} def
