Ruby's "exit" doesn't have to be as magicky owing to how simply typing "exit" in Ruby is a valid way to call a function with no arguments. The problem, if you can even call it that, is that Python doesn't have the separation between functions/methods on the one hand and procs on the other. That is a critical difference that needs to be kept in mind. Edit: grammar fixes. I didn't reread by comment before posting. :-/
