Re: [arch-general] CTRL-C stops working in bash 4.0

Has anyone noticed that ctrl-c randomly stops working in the new bash? I use rxvt-unicode 9.06-2 and it happens in a terminal where ctrl-c worked while typing bash commands, it will suddenly stop working ie bash will not recognise the key-press.

If I start python in the same terminal, it will notice the ctrl-c, so it's not the terminals fault.

This started to happen with bash 4.0 As a workaround you could start urxvt with the command to start bash and exit again:

urxvt -e sh -c 'bash;exit' At least, this works for me using xmonad.
