Exiting is not supported because it's designed to run continuously on its main
terminal. But if you run it from a shell, you can probably stop it using ctrl+Z
and then kill the process (e.g. kill %1). RevBank does not keep any files
open, so it's safe to kill when idle.
End-user documentation is provided through the help command. For RevSpace
visitors, some additional end-user documentation is available in Dutch at

RevBank can be used without RTFM, but some documentation is provided to describe the inner workings in more detail:
- RevBank - technical overview
- RevBank::Amount - fixed decimal numbers
- RevBank::FileIO - reading and writing files
- RevBank::Global - constants and utility functions
- RevBank::Plugins - writing plugins
- RevBank::Products - revbank.products file format
- RevBank::TextEditor - internal pager and editor
- RevBank::Users - user accounts and special accounts
The plugins are mostly undocumented, but some have useful hints in the source files, and some have actual documentation:
