The following character combinations are intepreted by the 3215 console
device driver (VM) and the operating system console (LPAR) as control
characters:
^c: Control-C
^d: Control-D
^z: Control-Z
^-?: Magic Sysrequest function (if the kernel is compiled with
magic sysrequest support)
In your case the ^c was most likely not interpreted correctly due to
code page differences. The ^ has to be entered in CP 37 (US), so you'd
either have to switch code pages for input or use the key that generates
a 0xb0 character (e.g. for CP 1146, that would be the cent sign).

Peter
