.TH "EXIT" "1" "Oct 26, 2026" "4.9" "fish-shell"
.SH NAME
exit \- exit the shell
.SH SYNOPSIS
.nf
\fBexit\fP [\fICODE\fP]
.fi
.sp
.SH DESCRIPTION
.sp
\fBexit\fP is a special builtin that causes the shell to exit. Either 255 or the \fICODE\fP supplied is used, whichever is lesser.
Otherwise, the exit status will be that of the last command executed.
.sp
If exit is called while sourcing a file (using the source \%<> builtin) the rest of the file will be skipped, but the shell itself will not exit.
.sp
The \fB\-\-help\fP or \fB\-h\fP option displays help about using this command.
