Ctrl + C is nt working ??????????????
hi...
I am using Red Hat 8.0.. Bt in my machine Ctrl + C is nt working . i have checked with the stty -a , it shows [intr=^C]. Bt still it is nt working so each time i have to kill the process after doing ^Z. plz give me some solution for this thing.. tks in advance.. Bye Mehul |
Many programs use Ctrl-C to do something special:
1) In most console programs, it aborts the program. 2) In emacs it is part of an extended keyboard shortcut. 3) In many programs with a GUI it is a shortcut for 'Copy'. What program are you trying to abort? Regards, Mark. |
Ctrl-Z doesn't usually kill the process, just puts it to background so you have to type fg to get it back.
Try killing with xkill or killall progname or do ps fax to get the PID and do kill -9 PIDnumber |

Ctrl-C in the shell just gives you an empty prompt. It doesn't kill any processes.
What are you trying to do? Why are you trying to kill OpenOffice? Can't you just select 'Exit' from the File menu? It is not usually a good idea to use Ctrl-C unless there is no other way to exit the program. Regards, Mark. |
Ctrl + C nt working...
hi mark,
i didnt get u.. wt i understood is that Ctrl+C will send a kill signal to the running process.. so it should kill the process. i m trying to kill a ping process. when i give "ping <ip address>" this process will ping infinitely so for killing this process i use Ctrl+C. So plz tell me wt could be the problem??.. |
Easier to just use: ping -c 2 IPNUMBER
that will ping twice. |
Did you have it since your first install?
