Q3: ^C/Abort behavior

Q3: ^C/Abort behavior

Justin C. Walker · Thu Aug 11, 2005 5:31 pm

Hi, again,

I've noticed some odd, and intermittent, behavior when I use ^C:

- sometimes, some of the variables I am using appear to be forgotten
by the system after the abort.

- sometimes, I can't get back to a '> ' prompt; I seem to be stuck
at the '. ' prompt.

As I say, it's intermittent and not reproducible (but repeated).

If it's of interest, I'll try and get examples of where it happens.

Regards,

Justin

Since it is not reproduced, it is hard to guess the reason.
Singular gives a . if it expects a command to be completed.

Usually this happens if you forgot one of the following:
; " }
It is very likely that something like this happend, just try
to add one of these characters.
