> From the QShell book:

Command exit status
Each command has an exit status that can influence the behavior of
other shell commands. By convention, a command exits with zero for
normal or success, and non-zero for failure, error, or a false
indication. The documentation for each command describes the exit
codes it returns and what they mean.
The exit status can be one of these values:
v 0 for success.
v 1 to 125 for failure.
v 126 when qsh finds the command but it is not executable.
v 127 when qsh cannot find the command.
v 128 and above when the command is ended by a signal. The value is
128 plus the signal number.
