Command: abort

Name:
abort - Abort all NEST processes gracefully. Paramteres: exitcode - The exitcode to quit with

Description:
This function can be run by the user to end all NEST processes as gracefully as possible. If NEST is compiled without MPI support, this will just call quit_i. If compiled with MPI support, it will call MPI_Abort, which will kill all processes of the application and thus prevents deadlocks. The exitcode is userabort in both cases (see statusdict/exitcodes).
