Hi Joel, This was the first route I took, and I would prefer a better solution, which I got with my case ....In my case the function was a call back function which returns some value[about which there has been some debate, but the essence was conveyed though], and so I use "return" instead of exit() or its equivalent, which, I guess would be more apt in the main() function.
I hope I have conveyed the point. Did I ?
