Hello all,

I have a NextStep application that occasionally goes into a (long) loop
when a user asks the wrong query of its database. I have been asked
to change this behaviour so that a control-c ejects the program from the
loop, returning control to the main event loop.

My question is, where do keyboard interrupts go, and how does a programmer
detect and use them?  The unix <signal.h> stuff doesn't work, NextStep or
Mach or something obviously grabs signals uses them to its own ends.

Is there a function in NextStep that is as conceptually easy as the 
signal.h stuff ?  Better yet, which appkit object contains the
[actNormallyUntillAControlcIsPressedThenSendMessageTo:myObject] method?
Can I easily roll my own such method?


Thanks in advance,
