That would keep Ctrl-C open for Windows copy. > We could do that Nicholas, but it wouldn't solve the problem. these users do not read any documentation, they just try to do what they are used to in the command line version (gdb -nw). As soon as as they notice that does not work hey immediately file a problem report, call support, send e-mail, keep arguing that they prefer this. Maybe I could do this binding anyway, so at least I have something for them when they call. Or maybe add the preference. Turned off by default, but if the user so desires, he/she can change it. I am sort of flip-flopping on this issue, isn't it? I guess I must sleep over it and think about what you guys said and come up with something that makes sense.
