            Bug ID: 28406
           Summary: add "exit" command as an alias for "quit"
           Product: gdb
           Version: unknown
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: P3
         Component: cli
          Assignee: unassigned at sourceware dot org
          Reporter: pabs3 at bonedaddy dot net
  Target Milestone: ---

I'm used to using an "exit" command to close shells and other REPL based
programs rather than the "quit" command used by gdb for this. I think it would
be helpful for people used to "exit" to have that aliased to the existing gdb
"quit" command by default.

For now I have added "alias exit = quit" to my ~/.gdbinit file, but I'll have
to re-add it whenever using another machine (like the GCC compile farm or a
Debian porterbox) or reinstalling my system, so having it by default would be
useful.

--- Comment #1 from Enze Li <lienze2010 at hotmail dot com> ---
I have submitted a patch and the documentation part is ok, the code part has
not been reviewed yet. I'm not sure if this feature is suitable for upstream.

For the record, patch posted
here:https://sourceware.org/pipermail/gdb-patches/2021-November/183371.html

    gdb: add "exit" command as an alias for "quit"

    This command adds the "exit" command as an alias for the "quit"
    command, as requested in PR gdb/28406.

    The documentation is also updated to mention this new command.

    Tested on x86_64-linux.
