Martin Panter added the comment: I don’t think SIGQUIT handling is a big problem. But even with the new change, it is still easy to screw up the terminal in many cases, so I wouldn’t say this is fixed yet. Steps for Python 3 in a small 80 × 25 terminal on Linux:
* import _pyio; help(_pyio) * Hit Ctrl-C Steps for Python 2: * import _pyio; help(_pyio) * Hit Ctrl-C * Hit Space ten times to scroll down. Alternatively, hit Ctrl-C a second time. I am posting a quick patch which I think should fix this in Python 3 by deferring the traceback until after the child has finished. Another method is using the signal module like <https://github.com/vadmium/pacman-tools/blob/9ffdd88/roopwn#L976>, but that’s probably too platform-specific for the pydoc module. ---------- Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file38730/interrupt.patch _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue23792> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
