# SYSTEM Command

#### Purpose:

To return to MS-DOS.

#### Syntax:

    SYSTEM

#### Comments:

Save your program before pressing return, or the program will be lost.

The SYSTEM command closes all the files before it returns to MS-DOS. If you entered GW-BASIC through a batch file from MS-DOS, the SYSTEM command returns you to the batch file, which continues executing at the point it left off.

#### Examples:
