Blackbox or stopping X in general


Swiched over to Blackbox which is just what I've been looking for, however got over zealous and before I knew I'd deleted the exit item from the menu.

Anyone know the command for shutting down X cleanly so I can add it back to the menu as at the moment I'm simply killing the process and pacifist that I am I hate having to be so violent on a regular basis

[exit] (Exit)
