KR> Is the following behaviour a bug in the PM of OS/2 1.1 ? (I think so) KR> KR> When a program handles the CTRL-C and CTRL-BREAK signal or ignores KR> them, KR> it cannot be killed by this keys in a full screen session. When the KR> same KR> program is run in a PM VIO window it is aborted with the comment "This KR> program was killed ..." even when it ignores this signals !!! KR> I tested this with several programs like MicroEMACS, QuickHelp .. When you run a text-mode program in a PM VIO window, you are actually running a PM program that provides a VIO environment. Your application is actually a child process of this parent, and the parent is actually processing the PM keystroke messages and passing them to the application as if they came directly from the keyboard driver. This parent program honors the Ctrl-Break signal, and terminates - taking your application with it. So, no, it is not a bug. -- Jim Gilliland - via FidoNet node 1:140/22 UUCP: alberta!dvinci!weyr!141!209.3!Jim.Gilliland Internet: Jim.Gilliland@p3.f209.n141.z1.FIDONET.ORG Standard Disclaimers Apply...
