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.
