Last release:

exit-x is a Node.js module that replaces process.exit to prevent output truncation, especially on Windows when piping or redirecting stdout and stderr. It waits for stdio streams to be fully drained before actually exiting, which is useful for ensuring logs are written completely during shutdown.
