\_ Hopefully this is an easy one - how dow I disable
\_ Control-d quick-exit in Bash (I tend to fatfinger
\_ the keyboard).

>From tfm:

Shell Variables
[...]
    IGNOREEOF
              Controls the action  of  an  interactive  shell  on
              receipt  of an EOF character as the sole input.  If
              set, the value is the  number  of  consecutive  EOF
              characters which must be typed as the first charac-
              ters on an input line before bash  exits.   If  the
              variable  exists but does not have a numeric value,
              or has no value, the default value is  10.   If  it
              does  not  exist, EOF signifies the end of input to
              the shell.

Yes, there's an art for the man pages, and yes, they're written by
people who know what's what but have forgotten momentarily, but they
still can be useful.  :-)
