Daniel <dbk...@gmail.com> added the comment:
If you write a handler for EOF like so:
from cmd import Cmd
class FooShell(Cmd):
def do_EOF(self, args):
# exit on EOF
raise SystemExit()
shell = FooShell()
shell.cmdloop()
Then when running the shell, you can see "EOF" as an undocumented command in
the help screen. You can see this when typing "?".
$ python fooshell.py
(Cmd) ?
Documented commands (type help <topic>):
========================================
help
Undocumented commands:
======================
EOF
I believe the correct behaviour should be (1) don't show it in the undocumented
commands, since it's not really a command; and (2) maybe create a built-in
command for this, since the literal string "EOF" is also caught by this handler.
