For now it might be easier to add an alias in the program itself for /bye and allow the use of /quit and /exit as well.

Or design a way for the user to have an .alias file to define their own aliases.

Thanks! This is a great tool!

Hey @bulrush15 , what's wrong with /bye or Ctrl-D?

@pdevine - it's probably the vim exit problem.

It makes sense to use Ctrl-D if you're used to REPL style environments, I would never have guessed "/bye" to exit though!

Hi,

I've created a PR for this feature request: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/pull/7335
While reviewing the code I noticed there's already an undocumented /exit command. I've added the /quit command and documented both.
Please review and let me know your thoughts.

Could we also add /出口 and /tschüss?

I see what you're getting at 😆

But just to note, there are multiple options like /exit and /bye in the current HEAD, so it might have been a better comment when /exit was introduced.

I admit /bye caught me by surprise too. Personally, I always use ctrl+d for quitting REPLs.
