In Python 2.3.4 on my Windows 2000 system, typing
control-Z at the interpreter prompt echos '^Z' and
exits the interpreter. In Python 2.4c1 when I type
control-Z, nothing happens at all - the interpreter
does not respond in any way.

I am unable to reproduce this today, though I have seen it
on more than one occasion...

On Windows XP SP2, Python 2.3.4 echos '^Z' and does *not*
exit.

jbrouwers:  That's expected.  You have to hit ENTER after it 
echoes ^Z.  Then it should exit.

I'm using Win2k, sp2, Py2.4, and it works OK.

Could you please test 2.4 final?

I haven't seen this problem in 2.4 final.
