How do I get a Mac “.command” file to automatically quit after running a shell script?

Question

In my shell script, my last lines are:

...
echo \"$l\" done
done

exit

I have Terminal preference set to \"When the shell exits: Close the wind

Answer 1

This worked perfectly for me.. it just closes that execution window leaving other terminal windows open

Just open Terminal and go to Terminal > Preferences > Settings > Shell: > When the shell exits: -> Close if the shell exited cleanly

Then just add exit; at the end of your file.
