In my case, I have 4 bash scripts that run in parallel processes. 2 of those scripts launch Java programs. The bug that I see is that Ctrl-C fails to kill the Java processes, when it used to work. The Java command, of course, is not built into cygwin but is the Windows program (which you can call from cygwin). I am running Win 7 pro 64 bit. Being nervous about installing snapshots, I followed Steven's workaround and just reran setup.exe, selecting for Base --> cygwin the suggested previous version, 1.7.18-1, and installed that. That old version works perfectly: Ctrl-C behaves exactly as expected. Corinna, do you know when the next prd worthy release of cygwin is likely to come out? Or do I need to monitor http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin-announce/ every day to find out? I note that Ctrl-C bugs seem to occur semi-regularly with cygwin: http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-03/msg00654.html http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2013-04/msg00001.html http://cygwin.com/ml/cygwin/2012-04/msg00365.html I wonder why?
