** Description changed: I sometimes press Ctrl-C at interactive prompts when I don't want to go through with the command I've begun to type. This works in most shells and interactive programs using readline. In calc, it works once, but only once. Afterwards, it's also impossible to use of Ctrl-C to abort - computations. A computation aborted with Ctrl-C does not *trigger* the + computations. Aborting a computation with Ctrl-C does not *trigger* the problem, however - only Ctrl-C pressed at the interactive prompt does.
