MP does not respect the Unix exit code convention #91

Closed taltman closed 7 years ago

taltman commented 8 years ago

If MP exits in an error state, it should return a Unix exit code of one or greater. It currently returns zero, which by convention means that the program exited without encountering any errors. This makes it hard to write programmatic wrappers for MP.
