Hi, I find it a major inconvenience that I am not able to send a KeyboardInterrupt (using CTRL+C e.g.) in the PyDev interactive console (unlike the normal Python interpreter). I am also surprised that it seems that not many people mentioned it -- the only reference to it that I found was [url=http://sourceforge.net/projects/pydev/forums/forum/293649/topic/1555468?mes sage=3874946]this one[/url]. Is there really no way to include a more gentle interrupt than the SIGTERM from the red square button in PyDev? Like adding a 'stop execution' button (rather than 'kill whole program'). The reason I ask is that whenever I code in Python I just seem to make heavy use of CTRL+C. Maybe because I mistyped something, and I want to interrupt the current flow; or a function will take forever to return (often due to a bug) and I just want to interrupt it. But I don't want to kill the whole program as I already had loaded several other data-structures which took a long time to build. I make heavy use of reload(<module>) for debugging and exploration purposes. Am I the only one?
