   Have you tried turning off control-c checking using int 21h, ah=33h,
   al=1, dl=0?  It may also help to set raw mode using function 44h.

As I remember it there's even a c function, setcbrk (), that can be used;
anyway that's what I did for Emacs.

When you are setting the Break mode (or the stdout mode) you should take
care to restore them before exiting; otherwise the next program may act
a little funny.
