The absolute worst is that the KDE and GNOME terminal applications don't let you kill running programs because control-C just copies the hightlighted text.
You have to use Control-Shift-C and Control-Shift-V to Copy/Paste text in the Gnome terminal. Control-C will just send SIGINT. Don't know about KDE's.

Well, I must be remembering some other terminal application, or am just completely confused. Apologies to everyone becuase it appears GNOME gets this right and that I was spreading misinformation.

works in konsole, too

konsole, too sends a SIGINT on Ctrl-c
Has always worked and it would be hard to do anything if it didn't. I'd surely use a different terminal emulator.
