This should have been done much earlier, but wasn't done for nostalgic reasons.
To new users, it didn't make sense that you could just enter an amount, and
revbank would just accept that as "withdrawal or unlisted product". It existed
for backwards compatibility with the very first revbank version, which didn't
have a product list, and which was not yet used with a barcode scanner. You
would simply enter the amount and your name, and there were no further
statistics.
Nowadays, there are statistics that are messed up if you don't use the product
codes. And some people were looking for a withdrawal command, and try 'take' as
that seems closest to it, but which instead transfers money to another account.
Additionally, some texts were changed for improved clarity. ("Enter username to
pay", when withdrawing, was confusing: one expects money back, not to pay more.)

Exiting revbank
Exiting is not supported because it's desigend to run continuously. 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.
