KeyboardInterrupt Exception not handled after pushing Ctrl-C

[robert-hh]

Version; MicroPython v1.8.6-251-g2fb950d on 2016-12-16; LoPy with ESP32

The KeyboardInterrupt Exception is not handled as such, and not as another exception type.
he follwoin small piece of code should catch Ctr-C, but it does. Other ports of MicroPython work properly, and even the WiPy 1 port does at least not terminate (it ignores Ctrl-C)

import sys
while (True):
    try:
        c=sys.stdin.read(1)
        sys.stdout.write(c)
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        print("received keyboard interrupt")
    except:
        print("Got another interrupt")
    if c == "q":
        break

Thanks @Ralph. On WIpy 1 there is however a little inconvenience in that the keyboard interrupt is not flagged immediately, but only after another character is typed. This behavior exists since ever, I reported it but it was never fixed.
Best regards, Robert

Hi @robert-hh,

I tested it and this seems to be a bug in the firmware. I can't seem to catch the keyboardinterrupt. On the WiPy 1.0 it does work.

I added this bug to Github issues now, you can find it here. If you find more specific bugs like this in the future, please post it there.

Regards,
Ralph
