I like Bob W's suggestion a lot.  It is more open-ended and scalable
than just continuing to add more and more lines to the startup
messages.  I assume these commands would only be in effect in
interactive mode, right?

You could also maybe add a "help" command, which, if nothing else,
could get people pointed at the online tutorial/manuals.

And, by all means, please keep the compiler version in the startup
message!
