What is the quickest way to get back into iris lite terminal after a 'halt'?

I hit halt in Iris lite terminal within VS Code and was exited out to PS prompt.  I was just curious what the best way / recommended way to get back into an InterSystems lite terminal would be?  Perhaps it is just to start a new InterSystems lite terminal from a the options listed previously in this post https://community.intersystems.com/post/how-run-objectscript-commands-v….  I was just curious if there was a way to kick it off again from the PS prompt?

When you HALT from a Lite terminal it closes. The PS terminal you are seeing will have been already open when you originally launched the Lite one.

I think there's a VS Code setting that would enable you to make Lite terminal the default type that the + button on Terminal toolbar creates.

Thanks.  Not sure what happened it might have been that I had existing PS shells open in VSCode and when I halted it just defaulted to showing one of the existing ones.  I am also using a local workspace which definitely contributed to my confusion.
