Control-C
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
In computing, control-C is a control character in ASCII code. It is generated by pressing the C key while holding down the Ctrl key on a computer keyboard.
Under most UNIX based operating systems control-C is used to terminate a process in a command shell by sending it a SIGINT. In many GUI environments, it can be used to copy highlighted text to the clipboard.
