Hi Juergen,
A feature request from someone who is using the debian stools package. A quick and working^Hdirty patch against the current CVS tree to get this to work:
Index: scli.c =================================================================== RCS file: /anoncvs/stools/scli/scli.c,v retrieving revision 1.21 diff -r1.21 scli.c 248a249,252
{ "quit", 0, "exit the scli command line program", scli_cmd_exit },
cheers, Remco.

Subject: Bug#100503: quit as synonym for exit From: Mark Brown Mark.Brown@ed.aculab.com To: Debian Bug Tracking System maintonly@bugs.debian.org Date: Mon, 11 Jun 2001 13:30:20 +0100
Package: stools Version: 0.1.17-1 Severity: wishlist
When using scli I frequently find myself typing "quit" instead of "exit" to exit the program. It would be nice if the two were synonyms.

I know that others asked similar questions. However, I am kind of reluctant to have multiple command primitives for the same thing.
I was thinking at some point in time to allow an alias mechanism to shortcut commands. This could then be used to let people define whatever shortcuts they like. I will think again about this.
And despite all this, typing ^D is still the fasted way to exit scli. ;-)
