Description Roland Stigge 2010-06-20 14:43:07 UTC 
Hi,

at Debian, the following was reported:

========================================================
Dia should behave like a good UNIX citizen and terminate, if I
press ^C in the shell. dia ignores my kill -INT or ^C. Most GUI
application respect ^C. (Maybe it's the Python integration?)
========================================================

I can confirm the issue on dia 0.97.1.

Thanks for considering!

bye,
  Roland

Yes, it is the Python integration, i.e. the workaround to have ctrl^C working is not loading the PyDia plug-in. A fix would have to change the Python intialization, I haven't found anything obvious with some quick googleing. Patches accepted.

Without a clean patch there will be no change.
