@Gary-Hobson I didn't know that Ctrl+C should hit a process running in
background, but I double checked it on Linux and in fact it worked, but there
are some catch:
If the process is running in foregroup Ctrl+C will terminate it:
```
alan@dev:~/nuttxspace/nuttx$ top
Ctrl+C
$ ps aux | grep top
// There is not top running.
```
When the process is running in backgroup Ctrl+C just stops it, but it still
in there, see:
```
alan@dev:~/nuttxspace/nuttx$ top &
[1] 96099
alan@dev:~/nuttxspace/nuttx$ ^C
[1]+ Stopped top
alan@dev:~/nuttxspace/nuttx$ ps
PID TTY TIME CMD
9921 pts/0 00:00:00 bash
96099 pts/0 00:00:00 top
96104 pts/0 00:00:00 ps
alan@dev:~/nuttxspace/nuttx$ ps aux | grep top
alan 96099 0.0 0.0 12708 4008 pts/0 T 12:20 0:00 top
alan 96108 0.0 0.0 9288 2372 pts/0 S+ 12:21 0:00 grep
--color=auto top
```
Are you replicating this behavior, or Ctrl+C will also terminate the process
running in background?
I think we should replicate the Linux behavior :-)
