Interrupt commands are commands that are read from the keyboard during
execution of a command sequence. This is only a very limited set.
- When TV is executing a command, CTRL_T and HELP can function as
progress indicators. Every time an executing file terminates, or an
iteration is closed, TV checks if CTRL_T or HELP were pressed. If
so:
CTRL_T causes the current line to be displayed in the status-
display;
HELP causes the information usually generated by the :h -
command to be shown in the status-display.
- When TV is executing a command, CTRL_G can be used to abort a looping
sequence. Every time an executing file terminates, or an iteration is
closed, TV checks if CTRL_G was pressed. If so, all (possibly nested)
sequence- and file-execution is terminated, and control returned to
the user. Any typed-ahead characters will be discarded.
- When TV is executing a command, CTRL_C can be used to abort the TV
session. Every time an executing file terminates, or an iteration
is closed, TV checks if CTRL_C was pressed. If so, all (possibly
nested) sequence- and file-execution is terminated, no registers are
saved, and TV aborts.
NOTE: There is a CTRL_X-setting to enable or disable each of the CTRL_T-,
CTRL_G- or CTRL_C-commands as Interrupt Command.
