Hi,

I plan to add a control-C handler in win32.c. The handler will simply
map it to SIGTERM. Is there any particular reason why control-C is not
currently handled?

Hi,

I forwarded this email to James - he might have a clue.

Currently the Windows implementation, when running in console mode, uses function keys to trigger various Unix signals (see win32_signal_get() function in win32.c).

The current code looks like this:

  switch (win32_keyboard_get (ws))
    {
    case 0x3B: /* F1 -> USR1 */
      ret = SIGUSR1;
      break;
    case 0x3C: /* F2 -> USR2 */
      ret = SIGUSR2;
      break;
    case 0x3D: /* F3 -> HUP */
      ret = SIGHUP;
      break;
    case 0x3E: /* F4 -> TERM */
      ret = SIGTERM;
      break;
    }


It's probably okay to just make CTRL-c generate a SIGTERM as F4 is already doing.
