Interrupting GNU Octave

[Felipe Monteiro de Carvalho]

Hello,

I have an application that runs GNU Octave and communicates with it
via pipes. Then to interrupt it in case I want to stop the current
processing it will send a SIGINT signal.

So this worked fine in all platforms, but now recently I received a
report saying that the new GNU Octave no longer accepts signals and
instead uses something called "quint", which I couldn't find any
information about in Google and that the system that I had developed
therefore no longer works.

Should SIGINT still work correctly in the latest GNU Octave? Or if
not, what is the new procedure for interrupting it?

thanks,
