When running windows I know that you should terminate all the applications
running before exiting windows itself.  Call me stupid :-) but every time
I start a window with DOS in it I don't know how to terminate the DOS 
application so I can exit windows cleanly.  I've looked in my DOS book
to no avail. 

Is there a keying sequence that DOS interprets as "DIE" or do I need to
somehow tell windows to begin DOS "shells" with an option to allow user
termination.

Since I'm cross-posting please send E-mail to keep me from wasting everyone's
time.

Thanks in advance,
