Theoretically, it should terminate the program. On Win2K, when you ^C
certain command-line apps, you get this message:
The I/O operation has been aborted because of either a thread exit or an
application request.
On Unix systems, unless the SIGINT is explictly handled by the
application, it will terminate the running process.
