Isaul Vargas <isa...@gmail.com> added the comment: I tested this on a real Windows 7 machine (64 bit, Ultimate) I open the command prompt, and I have the latest Pythons installed, Python 2.6.6, Python 2.7 final, and Python 3.1.2 If I hold down Ctrl-C, it will eventually exit the interpreter. Though it's not normal to hold down Ctrl-C, in practice that means pressing Ctrl-C to cancel a currently running script may just exit the interpreter. Python 3.1 seems really terrible in this regard where sometimes a single Ctrl-C will exit the interpreter.
I have seen this issue fixed in Python 2.5.2 on Windows. It would never exit the interpreter no matter how long I pressed Ctrl-C. I don't see this issue in Linux. I don't have a Mac to test, but I'd like Mac users to test the signal handling in their terminals. ---------- assignee: -> ronaldoussoren components: +Interpreter Core, Windows versions: +Python 2.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue1677> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
