kill netfabb process through lua script

[lakshaywadhwa17]

hi,

I am trying to automate cad file conversion through a lua script where my python scipt launches a netfabb instance with a startup lua repair script. The whole process works fine. The only thing which remains is that the netfabb instance keeps running even after the lua script has done its job. Is there any way that the lua script can kill that current instace of netfabb after its successfull in converting the file to the required format?

Any help would be really appreciated.

This is done by launching the Netfabb instance with the /terminateafterlua command-line parameter, introduced with Netfabb 2021.
