I was surprised by:
12:51:04 - No 'version ' command.


What happened is that I typed /ver<tab> (I used the tab completion to confirm that a version command existed) and then wondered what it actually does, so I moved my cursor back to after the / and typed "help <enter>". I didn't remove the trailing space added automatically by the completion (it's invisible if the cursor isn't there).

While this is a somewhat bizarre use case, it's not the first time it happens to me, and the fix seems trivial, so we should probably take it.
