+
+
+When working in batch mode, we need to return so-called `exit status'
+to the calling shell. Common Lisp has no provision for that ---
+not even exiting from the toplevel read-eval-print loop. Most
+Lisp implementations provide an `exit' function as extensions, though
+they don't agree on the exact spelling, therefore on the API.
+
+The function [[|quit|]] is our abstractions over those variabilties.
+It takes an optional small integer value, the exit status code to
+return to the calling shell. When no exit status code is specified,
+it would return $0$, meaning that everything is OK.
