stop a doctest execution

[Tarek Ziadé]

Hello,

is there a simple way to stop a doctest execution within its code ?

my use case is to abort the execution of part of the doc, given an arbitrary
condition.
That could be: existence of a third party package or whatever.

Adding tests throughout the doctest does not look good.

Maybe it's time to implement the 'exit' builtin ?  ;)

Failed example:
     exit
 Expected nothing
 Got:
     'Use Ctrl-D (i.e. EOF) to exit.'
