What do you mean? Ctrl-C interrupts time.sleep() okay in my Python (on MacOSX). [ryles] it doesn't work on Windows XP. It is, indeed, Windows. (I didn't realise the *nix based OS's didn't have this problem - an artifact of mostly using Python on Windows, despite the fact that I do my development *of* Python on Linux).
But looking at timemodule.c, there's lots of code that says it's there for "Ctrl+C" events/interruptions on Windows. Did that work at any time?
Actually, it looks like it works with a modern version of Python (I just checked with the 2.6 install on my home Windows machine). My work environment is stuck on 2.4, which is comparatively ancient these days - it would appear someone fixed this particular gripe while I wasn't looking :) I guess that means we can scratch that as an example use case then...
