Exiting, Interrupting, and Aborting the Software
Exiting PV-WAVE
Entering an EXIT or QUIT command at the WAVE> prompt causes PV-WAVE to exit unconditionally, and you are returned to the operating system prompt.
note | When you exit unconditionally, variable assignments are lost; however, data that is buffered for open output files is flushed to these files before exiting is complete. Customizations you make to PV-WAVE, such as changing the font used in the windows, or enabling MDI graphics, are saved in the file WAVE.INI and are restored the next time you start the software. |
Interrupting or Aborting PV-WAVE
This section describes individual characters that can be entered in conjunction with the <Control> key to interrupt or stop PV-WAVE. These characters are summarized in
Table 1-2: Control Characters Used for Interrupting or Stopping PV-WAVE.
For Microsoft Windows
The control characters listed in
Table 1-2: Control Characters Used for Interrupting or Stopping PV-WAVE are only recognized in the Console window and will not work in the Home window. Control characters are not recognized in any auxiliary windows, such as graphics windows. (Exception: <Control>-C is a standard Windows accelerator, so it is recognized in any window where a Copy to Clipboard operation is meaningful.)
