Hi Cygwin List,
I've read some messages on this topic, but haven't been able to find a
resolution to my problem.
Here's what I'm doing at the bash prompt:
$ /c/Windows/system32/ping.exe -t cygwin.com
The result is an endless ping trace - as expected.
The problem is that I have no way of stopping this command. Here is
what I've tried:
1) CTRL+C: does nothing
2) CTRL+Z: does nothing
3) CTRL+Break: Prints the text "Control-Break" in the output, but
doesn't exit the ping process (expected, since it behaves the same way
when running under cmd.exe).
I would expect CTRL+C to stop the process (the way it does when
running under cmd.exe).
I would also expect CTRL+Z to suspend the process, so that I could
then manage it with "bg" and "fg".
I first noticed something was weird because when I upgraded cygwin
CTRL+C stopped working (i.e. had no effect) when pressed in the middle
of an "msbuild.exe" run. Previously, this caused msbuild to stop.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Rob.
