Is it possible to add a convenience python function to the gdb module to exits python-interactive? ctrl-d also exits gdb when typed at gdb's prompt. So if you type one c-d too much, you'll quit gdb by mistake (unless you're debugging a program, in which case gdb at least confirms). (Related, I set this on my .bashrc , because of hitting ^D at the wrong shell too many times: # Don't use ^D to exit set -o ignoreeof ) -- Pedro Alves
