I'd like to give my .02

It would be very useful, particularly for those non-Unix-like 
systems. I think it could be done in the signal handling routine in 
scp.c. The emulator could dump memory and exit upon receiving, for 
example, SIGHUP. It seems to me that it would be faster and more 
reliable than having the underlying OS shut down.
