Maybe I need to take a WG> closer look at that (fwiw, it was tested under curses WG> (solaris), not ncurses). Interesting. I can attest that the version of ncurses I'm running in a terminal window in my default (CNOME) x-window GUI is not disabling the shell's interpretation of keyboard input. Control-C kills the app, and I loose the text I was writing. :( At least I can recover from control Z (with an fg command). Some other key strokes get eaten, making movement within the full screen editor interesting..... WG> I also updated the "int 24h handler" to recognize WG> SIGINT/SIGTERM under UNIX the same way control-break WG> and control-sysrq are handled under DOS/etc. I'm not WG> sure if that made it into -303b or not; it's in version WG> 1.2 of slib/brktrap.c. Control-break is not getting properly trapped in the code I'm running. Good to hear a version has this fixed. Hmmmm.... I should have this fixed now that I did a cvs checkout for the source code and recompiled from that..... Hmmmm.... Time to try a control-c again..... Take care......
