# Fix Python REPL `exit`

A simple script that makes typing `exit` in a Python interpreter do what you expect.

## How to Use

The whole script to make things work is in the file `fix-python-repl-exit.py`.

If you have a `PYTHONSTARTUP` script already, simply paste the contents of the file

into your existing script. If you don't have a script already then you can setup one

up like so:

```bash

# Create the initial script

$ touch ~/.pythonstartup.py

# Add the PYTHONSTARTUP environment variable to your bash / console profile:

# The name of the file '~/.bashrc' may be different if you're on a different OS.

$ echo 'export PYTHONSTARTUP="$HOME/.pythonstartup.py"' > ~/.bashrc

# Add things to the '.pythonstartup.py' file:

$ cat fix-python-repl-exit.py >> ~/.pythonstartup.py

# Try it out!

$ python

>>> exit

🎉

```
