#LOGOFF Built-In Function

Use #LOGOFF to log off the current TACL.

option

is any of these:

CLEAR

clears the terminal screen after you log off (for use when TACL is not

configured to clear the screen automatically).

NOCLEAR

prevents TACL from clearing the terminal screen after you log off (for use when

TACL is configured to clear the screen automatically-the usual case).

PAUSE

causes TACL to execute a PAUSE command immediately following the

LOGOFF command.

SEGRELEASE

immediately releases the extended segment used to hold your variables.

Typically, TACL saves this segment to use in case you are the next user of this

TACL, but if you fill up your variable space and processing cannot proceed,

you can log off using the SEGRELEASE option to discard the variable space.

Result

#LOGOFF returns nothing.

Considerations

•

When you log off, any processes that you started continue to run.

•

Any macro or routine running at the time #LOGOFF occurs terminates

immediately. A subsequent LOGON does not restart it. For example:

#FRAME

...

#LOGOFF

#UNFRAME

causes the frame counter to remain in its incremented condition because

#UNFRAME is not executed.
