Today, there is no cross-platform way to quit. Today, typing quit returns a message that suggests the interpreter is willfully disobeying you. Instead, change the quit object to one whose __call__ will exit, and whose __str__ says something like """ quit() exits the interpreter, by calling this quit object. """
