in thread win32, ctrl-c, sleep, and signals

I've tried it on w2k and I get the same issue. If I control C before the first print it exits without the die message.
Weird.

    Hi

    The reason could be die raises a signal. so Inside a signal handler, If a signal getting raised it will lead to misleading result. that is what happened in your code.

    Remove the die and use exit there. I have updated my node accordingly. use the same code and try in your important.

    That will work.

      Afraid not. :-) Still doesn't work for me. Peculiar.

      Thanks for trying it.
