      <p>Kawa normally keeps running as long as there is an active
read-eval-print loop still awaiting input or there is an unfinished
other computation (such as requested by a ‘<code class="literal">-e</code>’ or ‘<code class="literal">-f</code>’ option).
</p>
      <p>To close a read-eval-print-loop, you can type the special
literal <code class="literal">#!eof</code> at top level.  This is recognized as end-of-file.
Typing an end-of-file character (normally ctrl-D under Unix)
should also work, but that depends on your operating system
and terminal interface.
</p>
      <p>If the read-eval-print-loop
is in a new window, you can select ‘<code class="literal">Close</code>’ from the ‘<code class="literal">File</code>’ menu.
</p>
      <p>To exit the entire Kawa session, call the
<a class="link" href="Processes.xhtml#Exiting-the-current-process"><code class="literal">exit</code> procedure</a> (with 0 or 1 integer arguments).
