I don't mean to harp on, but I haven't seen a reason why writing "Use Ctrl-D on an empty line to quit" (with just "Use Ctrl-C to quit" on Windows) is any worse than this. Certainly writing "Control-C to clear the input buffer" on Windows is utlimately confusing, given that it will actually quit immediately. Geoff
