Re: Test Case for Job Control Problem


It is controlling the process it seems, because Control-C causes the process to
exit.  However, when I press Control-C the second time, there is no process in
the foreground and thus I would not expect anything to happen, but instead it
kills the second child make process.  Everything, works out well in the end - it
just doesn't feel right.
