When I enter Python help in the REPL, if I type "exit", I get:

Help on Quitter in module _sitebuiltins object:

exit = class Quitter(builtins.object)
 |  exit(name, eof)
 |
 |  Methods defined here:
(...)

If I try exit(), I get an error:

help> exit()
No Python documentation found for 'exit()'.
Use help() to get the interactive help utility.
Use help(str) for help on the str class.

It propose supporting to just type "exit", similar to "quit", to quit the help.
