G'day 1nickt,

The link you posted labeled "exit" is to a Google search (http://www.google.com/search?q=exit%20site%3Aperldoc.perl.org). The first item returned from that search is to perldoc (https://perldoc.perl.org/functions/exit.html). I couldn't see anything else pertinent, so I'm wondering why the intermediary Google step. Anyway, the point is somewhat moot as that's the wrong "exit".

"I am not a Tk programmer ..."

In my experience, even amongst Tk programmers, it's a little known fact that Tk exports, by default, its own exit: Tk::exit.

Knowing that doesn't help the OP but I thought it was worth mentioning.
