Reboot

Overview

The reboot command allows you to restart the terminal. This can be useful if the terminal seems to be running slow or if it has stopped responded. If you want to force a reboot, set the "force" value to "true". This will restart the terminal regardless of whether it is currently processing a transaction or unresponsive.
