subject: Force close a MDOS session?

Following up a message from Vitus Jensen to Michael Gleason:

 MG> I have another basic OS/2 question. What is the function (in C) 
 MG> to tell the current MDOS session to shutdown immediately?

 VJ> Disassemble c:\os2\mdos\exit_vdm.com

Here is the complete disassembly:

:0100 33C0          XOR     AX,AX
:0102 F4            HLT
:0103 02FD          ADD     BH,CH
:0105 CD20          INT     20

Note that the 02 FD is never actually executed as an ADD instruction, but
is inspected by the system as data when the HLT is trapped.  The INT 20h is
there in case some fool runs it under DOS.
