Is there a command that will exit from a function or script with a
particular code?
eg something like exit (that only works in scripts) or return (that only
works in functions)

Exit works in functions, too. It returns from the shell (not just the
function) with a given code. Return works in scripts, too. If called
outside a function, it behaves like exit.
