New description:

 This arose from some of the discussion at #12421. In summary: we don't
 need to mention `license()` in the Sage banner.  Instead, we should
 mention the `help()` command.  I also added basic information about using
 `less` with introspection to the help message.

 Apply [attachment:trac_12445-banner.patch],
 [attachment:12445_doublequote.patch], and
 [attachment:trac_12445-ref2.patch] to the main Sage library.

Comment:

 This should fix it - just updated John's patch with the correct number of
 lines for doctesting.  I'm reluctant to hit "positive review" though I
 think it is...
