Description:
When for loop output is piped to less and Ctrl+C is pressed, bash creates

yes | head -n 1000000 > log
2. Pipe log output to less this way:
for i in log; do cat $i; done | less
3. Press Ctrl+C in less
4. Quit from less with q
Result:
unexpected stopped job is created
[1]+ Stopped for i in log;
do
cat $i;
