New submission from Mitchell Model <m...@acm.org>: Section 2.1 of the tutorial describes using import sys; sys.exit() if ^D or ^Z doesn't work. However, both quit() and exit() work, as documented in the "Built-in Constants" section of the Library documentation. Is there something about them that should be hidden from the ordinary user that they aren't used in place of the import sys; sys.exit() combination? Seems easier to just say use "quit() or exit()", especially for beginners following the tutorial who won't know what import or sys are, or even the dot notation.
