Gentlemen, at the bottom of /etc/rc.local I have: echo "============ $0: Will execute \"${program=/etc/init.d/nodm start}\" in ${seconds=5} seconds. Hit ^C to cancel. Hit RET to start right away." for ((; seconds > 0; seconds--)); do read -p $seconds.. -t 1 && break; done echo running $program... $program The problem is of course that ^C is ignored when running /etc/rc.local . I have tried putting set -i, stty, trap '' INT, you name it, into /etc/rc.local . They all don't work. The best I can do is to type something and then a RET, and evaluate that, which is not as fun as ^C.
