I just logged onto The WELL, whose login message says "UNIX(r) System V Release 4.0". ^C out of more(1) doesn't cause the terminal to stop echoing characters. I then logged onto remarque.org, which says "SunOS Release 4.1.1_U1", and *it* doesn't stop echoing when I ^C out of more(1). I can double-check on a few others, but frankly I have never seen this behavior anywhere but the recent releases of FreeBSD that I've tested. --Brett To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
