in thread Perl Term::ReadLine::Gnu Signal Handling Difficulties

Thanks again for the reply. I'll be sure to mention cross positing if it happens again as well.

So I've tested this in two environments and in each, the ctrl-c isn't handled until I press enter. Here are the two environments.

OS: Gentoo Linux 2.6.35 x86_64 Perl: 5.12.4 Term::ReadLine::Gnu: 1.20 readline version: 6.2_p1 OS: Gentoo Linux 3.3.8 x86_64 Perl: 5.16.1 Term::ReadLine::Gnu: 1.20 readline version: 6.2_p1

As an aside, I added the following line as a quick check to make sure I'm using Term::ReadLine::Gnu when testing this on different machines.

print $term->ReadLine."\n";

Again, thanks for your help with this. :)

    My apologies. Apparently I tested this on the wrong box. I was using Term::ReadLine::Stub instead of Term::ReadLine::Gnu. I'll try again in a bit and keep you updated with what I find.
