Which would be?
- Symbiote 9y agoControl C.
- Crito 9y agoWhat interactive terminal programs exit using ^C? Nano doesn't, top doesn't. There is no standard for interactive terminal programs. Furthermore ^C doesn't fit with the rest of vim's control schema, so you wouldn't really be doing anybody any favors in the long run.
- disconnected 9y agoFunnily enough, emacs doesn't either.
- tuco86 9y agoWasn't Ctrl-C used for something in vim ;)
- falcolas 9y agoTry that in less. Or Emacs. Or Nano. Or Pico. Or ed. Doesn't work there, either. Most of those don't even offer advice on how to exit when you hit that combo, do they? So, how is Ctrl-C the right answer then?
