Hi Roberto, thanks for bringing this to my attention!
For background, Control+C isn't quite equivalent to Ctrl+Break (or Ctrl+ScrollLock) - as you mention, it can't be used to break execution of a program, though it will exit an INPUT statement or AUTO mode.
The problem is of course that the standard Mac keyboard has neither a Pause/Break key nor a ScrollLock key, so you can't form these key combinations. I'll need to define another key to work around this so that you can enter Ctrl-Break. It's going to take some time as I cannot access my OSX build environment at the moment, but I'll try to include a fix in the next minor release.

I'm running Windows 10 and my laptop does not have a Pause/Break key nor a ScrollLock key. I think those keys are rather obsolete for the hardware these days. Can you implement Ctrl-C for Windows as well?
Thanks,

Hi Brian, sorry I only caught your message now. It seems like it is solved, for the record for those reading this thread, the option that needs to be set is ctrl-c-break=True in PCBASIC.INI (or run with pcbasic --ctrl-c-break on the Windows CMD terminal).
I'm looking into ways to more easily support Break and the other necessary keys (numeric keypad, scroll lock, etc) on increasingly austere modern laptop keyboards. There probably will need to be some 'emulator home key' as is the case in e.g. DosBox and virtual machine managers. F11/F12 may be a good option, but I still need to think through the consequences.

Hi Roberto, I've uploaded release 14.10.2, which will allow you to use Ctrl+C to break program execution on Mac OSX.

Please ignore my previous post. I decided to RTFM (which needs to be more obvious) then updated my INI file to match MacOS. :-)
