The solution will depend on the login procedure. In fact the user shell should quit when (or even before) the last command, i.e. sql*menu, has finished, with no respect as how sql*menu finishes. Please tell us more about the current login procedure.

In this case a new shell is launched as a child proces of sql*menu. It will exit immediately and give control back to its parent sql*menu.
