exit?
I would like that much better.
So EXIT would close the socket and QUIT would shutdown the node? Or
the other way around?
if it's supposed to shut down the node, use SHUTDOWN (like in *nix to
bring something completely down)
to close the socket use EXIT (like sh/dosshell) or QUIT (like 95% of
programs)
what's the problem? :)

shutdown might end up being typed on the console? I suppose that's not a
real problem as shutdown on its own won't bring the system down, even if
the user is root.
Freenet uses java. So the above depends on the OS. For instance,
shutdown alone is
enought to stop an IBM VM based os (which does run java...)
So don't run Freenet "as root". :)
Honestly, it looks to me like the "QUIT closes the socket, SHUTDOWN takes
down the node" approach is favored by most who have spoken, but then I
favor this myself.
Should we put this to an informal vote?
Candidate A: "EXIT closes the socket, QUIT takes down the node"
Candidate B: "QUIT closes the socket, SHUTDOWN takes down the node"
For what it's worth, I vote SHUTDOWN for taking down the node.
EXIT and QUIT are both common for closing a console/connection, so allow
either for closing the socket.
