R. David Murray added the comment: I wonder if you could achieve what you want (which I always hope programs I use never do[*]) by writing your own signal handler.
In any case, I don't believe there is a bug here. This is working as designed. [*] There are many times I have found myself leaning on ctl-C on autorepeat hoping that the ctl-c will happen at a point where the application isn't catching it, so that I can get the darn thing to abort. I realize you are proposing to do this only to then do the abort...but what if there is a bug in your code? I'd *much* rather see a traceback than have to fall back to 'kill'. At least with the traceback I know the interpreter has had a chance to clean up. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue18836> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
