Re: [coLinux-users] Can I stop Ctrl-C in the Colinux console from exiting?

Great, thanks.
So to save from having to start colinux and then a separate terminal, I
write a batch script that checks if it is running and if not starts it
with -d (using the Cygwin `run` command or some other way of suppressing
the now useless terminal), then starts a terminal to connect to the
running Colinux session.  Seems a little complicated :) I still don't
understand the point of having Ctrl-C shut it down if I run without -d
:)

If I remember correctly Ctrl-C stops coLinux if you ran 
colinux-daemon.exe without the -d option and colInux was running in the 
foreground of your DOS shell.

To run coLinux in the background include, the -d on the command-line.

It's also a good idea to read the whole colinux-daemon.txt file (in your

colinux directory, next to colinux-daemon.exe) from top to bottom!

It also tells you neat tricks like how to make colinux startup 
automatically in the backgrouns as a Windows service at boot time, so 
you dont have to start it each time yourself.
