If you want to type something consistently across platforms, you can currently do
raise SystemExit
I'm not sure what to say to that. Do you really want to type "raise SystemExit" every time you want to exit the interpreter? (Your answer would probably be something like "No -- that's why I use Ctrl-D". But that wouldn't really get us anywhere, would it?)
My point is that there is currently no acceptable, universal way to exit the interpreter. Again, it's not that big of a deal... but it seems silly that something apparently trivial like that cannot be done right.
