[erlang-bugs] ^G does not work in erl.exe (Windows, x64, OTP 17.4)

[Сергей Ерохин]

Hello!
I has just started reading tutorial and see that doing Ctrl-G in erl.exe has no effect:

C:\>erl
Eshell V6.3  (abort with ^G)
1> ^G
Eshell V6.3  (abort with ^G)
1> ^G
Eshell V6.3  (abort with ^G)
1>


But it works in werl.exe:

Erlang/OTP 17 [erts-6.3] [64-bit] [smp:8:8] [async-threads:10]

Eshell V6.3  (abort with ^G)
1> 
User switch command
 --> 



Also Ctrl-Break just closes erl.exe while in  werl.exe it gives (like it is written in manuals) following:

Eshell V6.3  (abort with ^G)
1> 
BREAK: (a)bort (c)ontinue (p)roc info (i)nfo (l)oaded
       (v)ersion (k)ill (D)b-tables (d)istribution
