When command or filename completion (^Z) is interrupted in progress
with ^C, pressing ^C again results in a beep: it does NOT abort entering
the current command as it would have if command completion had not
been aborted.
Repeat by:
z ^Z ^C ("beep beep") ^C ("beep")
^ ^
| |
| +--- press this quickly, before the completion finishes
this could be any character or string
compare to
z ^C (erases current line, redisplays prompt)
What should happen:
z ^Z ^C ("beep beep") ^C (erases current input line, redraws prompt)
