>The normal method of using data queues in a batch process is to wait
forever on the queue.

Or, wait about 20 seconds, and then check the SHUTDN (%SHTDN) opcode to see
if the job has a controlled end requested. If so end in an orderly fashion.
The small amount of processing time that the check takes doesn't amount to
anything significant.
