Parenthetically, could someone explain why this doesn't work[1]:
>>> import signal
>>> def interrupt(signum, frame):
... sys.exit(1)
...
>>> signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, interrupt)
<built-in function default_int_handler>
>>> ^C
KeyboardInterrupt
>>> ^C
KeyboardInterrupt
>>> ^C
KeyboardInterrupt
and yet:
>>> def testit():
... signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, interrupt)
... while 1:
... pass
...
>>> testit()
^C[mwh@starship mwh]$
I think I hate readline.
Cheers,

[1] Actually I know, on thinking about it, but it still sucks.
Is this worth working around?

You have run into the classic Dmachine problem: your machine has
become occupied by a malevolent spirit. Replacing hardware or
software will not fix this - you need an exorcist.
