Suppose you run autoseq and your NFSEQ is set to "net.*".  In the
middle of your notes session you urgently have to leave.  It looks like
^D does not update the sequencer so you don't want to use that.  'q'
updates the sequencer but goes on to the next next notesfile so you
don't want to use that either.  Is there no way to update the sequencer
and exit immediately?  I've been looking at the '?' output and don't
see any.

	The easiest way I have found is:

		1) finish the article you are reading

		2) type 'k' (or 'q').  This will update the sequencer
		to the present point, and go to the next newsgroup.

		3) type '^D'.  This will exit, without updating the 
		sequencer for that group.

	However, I must say, there should be a command which says:

			Get me out NOW, but update the 
			sequencer.
