[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #37672] GUI doesn't react to CTRL+C

[Mike Miller]

Follow-up Comment #46, bug #37672 (project octave):

It's unclear to me what has been fixed and should work now, I haven't been
following too closely.

Built tonight, I *can* interrupt long-running Octave functions, but interrupts
do not seem to be sent on to child processes invoked from Octave, e.g. through
system(). Is this expected or should be working now?

Doing either system("sleep 30") or system("watch ls") in the GUI results in
something that can't be interrupted at all.

Also making "less" come up and then pressing "F" to enter tail mode results in
something that can't be interrupted (this was reported in another bug that I
marked as a duplicate of this one).
