Hello, When I run this script,
#!/usr/bin/perl use Term::ReadLine; use sigtrap 'handler' => \&myhand, 'INT'; sub myhand { print "\n caught $SIG{INT}",@_,"\n"; } my $term = Term::ReadLine->new('test'); print $term->ReadLine()."\n"; $term->readline("try CTRL-C in some text here :");
I get a «^C» character displayed when I hit CTRL-C, but the signal is only processed once I type the Enter key. Here is the output :
marcel@machine:/tmp$ perl test.pl Term::ReadLine::Gnu try CTRL-C in some text here :auie ^C caught CODE(0x558c9e99acb0)INT marcel@machine:/tmp$
How can I catch it sooner ? Thanks.

Note : I use $term->AddDefun() and $term->bind_keyseq() to catch CTRL-UP/DOWN successfully, but this appears to be limited to some keys. I can't bind to CTRL-Enter for instance as I don't get a key-sequence as I do for CTRL-UP. Is this all related ?
