[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #37672] GUI doesn't react to CTRL+C

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #4, bug #37672 (project octave):

I do see that ctrl-c does cancel the current line being edited if no text is
selected. It also does break out of a long-running for loop. But I don't see
the following working in the GUI, which works fine in terminal mode:


octave:1> sleep (5);
ctrl-c


first ctrl-c: nothing happens
second ctrl-c: "Press Control-C again to abort."
third ctrl-c: Octave exits

So the interrupt is being caught by sigint_handler, but does not break the
sleep function.
