Subject: CTRL-C not working in sh login mode?
Hi,
We invoke a shell using a *.bat file doing sh --login.
We have discovered that when wanting to kill a long running process with
CTRL-C, it does not work.
Is this expected behavior?
I've found that to be the same even if I am doing bash --login -i in my *.bat
file.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,
Just wanted to provide some additional information to make things a bit clearer.
Running either "sh -login" or "bash --login -I" from a *.bat file will cause
some commands to not be broken with CTRL-C.
For example, this test loop cannot be broken with CTRL-C when I start Cygwin up
from the *.bat file.
echo foo | perl -e 'while(1) {sleep 60;}'
Or if I do "cat <file_name> | more", CTRL-C does not work in that case.
Again, is that expected behavior?
Thanks,
Ben Cao
