If you want to close the shell session, there are several ways to do so:
|
|
|
|
<ul>
|
|
<li>Press <code>^ (control) + D</code>. Although this key combination closes the shell,
|
|
it doesn't quit the terminal application as it just saves and closes the current session.
|
|
A closed session does not allow any input or output anymore.
|
|
</li>
|
|
<li>Insert the <code>exit</code> command. Unlike the mentioned key combo, exit also quits
|
|
the terminal application itself.
|
|
</li>
|
|
</ul>
