I finally got around to looking that up in the BOYAN 4.0 manual.  It's
very simple.  The default on exit (ALT-X, not CTL-X) is to drop DTR. 
Option E on screen E of Configure BOYAN (ALT-C) can change this.  I
just tried it: it works.  (More people should use BOYAN 4.0 - no, I
don't profit from it, I'm just a happy user.)
