>program.exe
>aaaa
>bbbb
>dddd
>cccc
>eeee
>^C
aaaa
bbbb
cccc
dddd
eeee

hmm dude then if you are linux then you have to catch the singals

i can give you example like

check this out

Code:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <unistd.h>
#include <signal.h>


void exit_program(int sig) {
  printf("Wake up call ... !!! - Catched signal: %d ... !!\n", sig);
  (void) signal(SIGINT, SIG_DFL);
}

int main(void) {
  (void) signal(SIGINT, exit_program);

  while(1)
    printf("I wanna catch Ctrl + C\n"), sleep(1);

  return 0;
}
