RETURN(1) Korn Shell RETURN(1) NAME return - return from a function or dot script SYNOPSIS return [n] DESCRIPTION return is a shell special built-in that causes the function or dot script that invokes it to exit. If return is invoked outside of a function or dot script it is equivalent to exit. If return is invoked inside a function defined with the function re- served word syntax, then any EXIT trap set within the then function will be invoked in the context of the caller before the function re- turns. If n is given it will be used to set the exit status. EXIT STATUS If n is specified, the exit status is the least significant eight bits of the value of n. Otherwise, the exit status is the exit status of preceding command. SEE ALSO break(1), exit(1) AUTHOR David J. Korn, et. al. COPYRIGHT 2019, David J. Korn, et.al. Oct 03, 2019 RETURN(1)
