To save an image that will restart an application using Lucid Common
Lisp(LCL), use the :restart-function keyword to disksave.

To quit out of LCL completely you might try something like: 

(define-to-do-command (com-quit-to-do :menu "Quit")
    ()
  (let ((ftlw (frame-top-level-window *application-frame*)))
    (setf (window-visibility ftlw) nil)
    (force-output ftlw))
  (frame-exit *application-frame*)
  (lcl:quit))

If the user clicks on this menu item, the lisp process will
terminate and the user will be left at the unix prompt.

Sincerely,

John Kern
