BREAK

Warning Semi-deprecated command Warning: some functions of this command have been deprecated.

Sets or clears extended control of Ctrl + C (^C) in the DOS subsystem, or inserts a break point for debugging.

BREAK [ON | OFF]

Where:

  • ON - Sets Ctrl + C.
  • OFF - Clears Ctrl + C.

Not specifying either ON nor OFF, displays whether BREAK is enabled.

NB: Since the Windows 2000 version, this no longer has the effect of changing or displaying the ^C control, but only that of inserting a break point for debugging. Specifying the ON or OFF options is no longer supported in newer versions of Windows.
