Wow, now *that's* lazy... :-)
What confuses me is how you can be 'too lazy' to check if Ctrl-D works, but
apparently checking if Ctrl-C works is much much easier....
I haven't run into a platform where CTRL-C doesn't work. Therefore
saying "ctrl-C" required no effort on my part. "none" < "some". :-)
Well, that plus the "Ctrl-d doesn't work on all platforms" bit. Are we
still talking posix here or no?
Well, now that you made me go look, I can't find the platform that
doesn't like ctrl-D... but I know I've had problems in the past. Maybe
it was NSK. ;-)
