I tested cmd.py on Linux and two things (including the one reported by OP) looked odd to me. 1) CTRL-D produces a message "*** Unknown syntax: EOF". 2) CTRL-C produces a KeyboardInterrupt exception and the session terminates. I am attaching a patch that changes the behaviour to a more typical one (at least, in IMHO). It terminates the session on CTRL-D and it just ignores CTRL-C. Both of these can be overridden, if required. If the patch is accepted, a doc change would be required in addition to the change in doc string. I tested the patch on Linux and Windows.
