I think that it may be bash, not cygwin. Bash does not exit with ^C, but will with ^D. See SIGNALS in man bash. (A feature, not a bug.) If you want to replace an instance of bash with a new one, think about using the exec builtin. - Barry Disclaimer: Statements made herein are not made on behalf of NIAID. -- Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/ Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple
