With each heart symbol representing a Ctrl-C.

The fact that boisgera and pekka.klarck experience different behaviour (i.e. console killed, no KeyboardInterrupt generated) indicates that they are not using windows, since they did not see heart symbols, as I do.

If it is windows only (requires evidence), then we *could* fix it by specializing the installer to default to a different console on windows.

But I don't like that solution. I'd rather the same console everywhere.
