[issue26531] KeyboardInterrupt while in input() not catchable on Windows 10

[Joshua Cannell]

Joshua Cannell added the comment:

Yeah, so this looks like a behavior in Windows in which an EOFError is raised when a Ctrl + C is pressed, followed by a KeyboardInterrupt.

This post basically explains how to overcome it: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/31127652/cannot-catch-keyboardinterrupt-in-command-prompt-twice

def bing():
    try:
        input()
    except EOFError:
        print("Caught an EOFError")

try:
    bing()
    print("After bing")
except KeyboardInterrupt:
    print("Final KeyboardInterrupt")

Sorry for necro-ing an old issue.
