Ctrl-C within Remote Terminal

Sixfab Connect

Love the Remote Terminal option and use it all the time.

How do I Ctrl-C with the terminal? Connected to RaspberryOS shell. Ctrl-C isn’t working for me so I have to close and restart the terminal. Thanks.

What does stty --all show. For me in an ssh session it looks like:

speed 9600 baud; rows 40; columns 80; line = 0;
intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = M-^?; eol2 = M-^?;
swtch = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; rprnt = ^R; werase = ^W;
lnext = ^V; discard = ^O; min = 1; time = 0;
-parenb -parodd -cmspar cs8 -hupcl -cstopb cread -clocal -crtscts

echoctl echoke -flusho -extproc

The key thing you care about is that intr = ^C part. If you see that then something weird is going on.

Hi,

Try to use CTRL+Z.

CTRL-Z gets you back to the shell but suspends the process.

Mine seems the same as yours with intr=^C.

Does ^C work for you in sixfab’s remote terminal?

$ stty -a
speed 38400 baud; rows 27; columns 83; line = 0;
intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; eol = <undef>;
eol2 = <undef>; swtch = <undef>; start = ^Q; stop = ^S; susp = ^Z; rprnt = ^R;
werase = ^W; lnext = ^V; discard = ^O; min = 1; time = 0;
-parenb -parodd -cmspar cs8 -hupcl -cstopb cread -clocal -crtscts

Hmmm… my guess is that your browser is intercepting ^C and using it for something else.

One thing to try is:

stty intr ^Y

And then try using ^Y instead of ^C. That assumes your browser isn’t catching ^Y…

Also, almost nobody really uses quit (^\) anymore, so you might try that if ^Y doesn’t work.
Probably you should turn off quit before adding it for intr.

Thanks for the suggestions. Browser is Chrome.

I tried stty intr ^Y; no luck.

I tried ^\ and that worked to quit the foreground process. I can use that instead of ^C.
