satisfaction, press the Return key on the editing line to execute the edited command:

Leaving SAFECOM Without Losing Defaults (Using the Break 
Key)
You can return to TACL without losing your current SAFECOM default settings by 
pressing the Break key at the SAFECOM prompt. Break pauses SAFECOM and 
returns control to TACL. After pausing SAFECOM, you can enter any number of 
commands at the TACL prompt. 
To return to your interrupted SAFECOM session, enter the PAUSE command at the 
TACL prompt. This pauses TACL and returns control of the terminal to SAFECOM.
For example:
=BREAK
5> time 
June 21, 1992 8:56:30 
6> pause

Exiting a Long Report Display (Break Key Handling)
You can stop a long report that SAFECOM is displaying by using the BREAK key. 
When you press BREAK, SAFECOM stops executing the command and displays its 
command prompt.
Exiting SAFECOM
When the SAFECOM session is completed, return to TACL with the EXIT command:
=EXIT 
7>
Another way to exit SAFECOM is to press the CTRL and Y keys at the same time. 
SAFECOM interprets CTRL/Y as an end-of-file character (EOF). When SAFECOM 
reads an EOF from its input file (in this case, your terminal), it closes the input file and 
stops executing.
