Break Ü
ßßßßßß
Sets the status of the extended Control+Break checking.
You can press CTRL+C to stop a program or an activity. Typically,
FreeDOS checks for CTRL+C only while it reads from the keyboard or writes
to the screen or a printer. If you set break to ON, you extend CTRL+C
checking to other functions, such as disk reading and writing operations.
Syntax: BREAK [ON | OFF]
ON Turns extended Control+Break checking on
OFF Turns extended Control+Break checking off
Type break without parameters to see the current setting.
Including break in CONFIG.SYS
The default setting for break is off. You can include the break command
in CONFIG.SYS to enable extended CTRL+C checking every time you start
your computer.
Example:
C:\>break
BREAK is off
C:\>break on
BREAK is on
