Re: Sending ctrl-c to running process


Hello;


Tried task.abort - looks good. Needs an indication of the job being killed in the output window.

I didn't see a way to configure this into the menu that comes up with 3 on the output pane. This would be a good place to put it. Maybe also a config option to either send INT, TERM or KILL signals.

Thanks.

How can I send a control-c to a command started in the command window.
I tried selecting the process and typing <Ctrl-C> but nothing went in.

Can't. An entered command of the form 'pid:message' (or '0:message' for the 
last-started command) will pipe 'message' to that process, but that's not going to 
work for <Ctrl>C etc.

Need to kill it instead. Select a process from children menu to paste the 
relevant pid.
Or be brave and enable the largely untested 'task.abort' action and make a 
menu-button for that.
