Karr) Date: 12 Jul 2000 08:29:40 -0700 Message-ID: Lines: 18 X-Mailer: Gnus v5.5/Emacs 20.6 With the new Cygwin, when I run a subprocess in an Emacs shell, pressing C-c C-c (which executes "comint-interrupt-subjob") does not kill the subprocess. The title bar flashes, but that's all. When the running process is a Java application, it also does a thread dump, which is supposed to happen when it gets a "QUIT" signal. I've verified these symptoms with Emacs v 20.4, 20.6, and 20.7. However, if I retreat to Cygwin B20.1, without changing anything else, this symptom goes away. Pressing C-c C-c in the shell properly kills the subprocess. I'd really like to move up to the new cygwin, but not being able to easily kill subprocesses in the shell is extremely inconvenient. -- =============================================================================== David M.
