Ideally, you would want ctrl-c to terminate the program, as it's what the user expects, so keep in mind that you should tell the user why it's not terminating if you change the program's response.</p> <p><strong>Edit3</strong>: Cat's suggestion of a keylistener is your next best bet if you can't catch and dismiss the event yourself. <a href="http://www.darkcoding.net/software/non-blocking-console-io-is-not-possible/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Halway down the page is an example of how to do it for java in linux/Windows - it's not a portable thing.</a> Essentially, your program will be handling keyboard events instead of the console sending the keybaord events to it. This means the command line is bypassed, and cannot read the ctrl-c call. I'd write code, but I'm at work now; Wednesdays are a long day for me. If you haven't gotten it by the time I get home, I'll take a look at writing some examples.</p>
