Great, and I found a few sites that document this to some extent. It
seems that (historically) this was not universal. Anyway.
I haven't tried this on any other computers. How could I test this from
the command line of Sage? Presumably with Ctrl-C... that seems to work
properly, sometimes I even see the new code in the traceback if I do it at
the right time :)
Is that enough for positive review?
