This is a quite limited approach, which meets the requirements by primarily tweaking the presentation only. Why take a limited approach? Because it implicitly keeps track of backward compatibility, for example, which commands can be entered without punctuation at all: "use mysql". In a followup it would be desirable to rewrite register_special_command() to take more parameters, such as "can be entered without punctuation", and a complete helpdoc to be returned on "/help /command".
