Enter BYE and when GS/OS returns the mounted image files are dismounted, gone. Of course, don't count on this method as P8 support may be added someday. Allowing GS/OS to 'eject' the disk would be best option.

Hitting 'CTRL-Y', as is the way for a real disk (not HDs), would appeal to me the most. But an 'EXTRAS' menu option would be ok, too. Whatever is most convenient for the programmer, naturally. ;-)))
