EVE QUIT — VMS 5.1-B

 QUIT

 Ends the editing session without saving your edits.  This discards the
 edits made during the session, except those ou have saved by using SAVE
 FILE or WRITE FILE commands.

 Steps:

    1.  Use the QUIT command or with the WPS keypad, press GOLD-K.

    2.  If you have modified any buffers and not saved them, EVE asks you
        to confirm that you are quitting, to prevent accidentally losing
        your work.  Respond Yes to quit, or No to continue editing.

 If you have NOT modified any buffers, or if you have already saved all
 your edits, QUIT does not prompt you for confirmation.  Also, in such
 cases, EXIT and QUIT are the same.  Thus, you can quit by pressing a key
 defined as EXIT, such as F10 or CTRL/Z.
