Dear Maintainer, bc in the interactive mode keeps the contents of the previous line after hitting Ctrl+C. Example: Type 111, hit Ctrl+C, type 1+1. Expected output is 2. Observed result: 111^C (interrupt) use quit to exit. 1+1 1112 The performed calculation is 1111+1, definitely now what the user wants (imagine a shell like bash not clearing the line after Ctrl+C). There is another very annoying bug #932490 that prevents exiting with Ctrl+D after Ctrl+C (which is common to all shells and itneractive application I am aware of). It is also caused by the fact that the line is not cleared after Ctrl+C.
