fwiw, the manpage alludes to this (it doesn't say that xterm exits after

It doesn't say that xterm exits after doing either of those operations,
but what is really unintuitive is that the behavior changes whether
-h / -v is the first argument or not.

agreed. What I missed in the previous change was the end of the if-then-else chain, which reset the 'quit' variable. It's been too long ago to recall why I thought it was a good idea, and it's a simple change to force a quit as expected.

(I'll update the manpage, too ;-)
