- * This is a design flaw in Tcl -  the standard "exit" command just calls
- * exit() and kills the application.  It should return TCL_EXIT to the
- * app, which then decides if it wants to terminate or not.  In our case,
- * we just delete the Tcl interpreter (and create a new one with the next

+ * Delete the Tcl interpreter; a new one will be created with the next
+ * :tcl command). The exit code is saved (and retrieved in tclexit()).
+ * Since Tcl's exit is never expected to return and this replacement
+ * does, then (except for a trivial case) additional Tcl commands will
+ * be run. Since the interpreter is now marked as deleted, an error
+ * will be returned -- typically "attempt to call eval in deleted
+ * interpreter". Hopefully, at this point, checks for TCL_ERROR take
+ * place and control percolates back up to Vim -- but with this new error
+ * string in the interpreter's result value. Therefore it would be
+ * useless for this routine to return the exit code via Tcl_SetResult().
