+### FAQ 3.12: How do I find out how to send interrupt/EOF etc. for entries that require it?
+
+For some entries one needs to send interrupt or EOF or some other signal/other
+special characters. There are typical defaults like (where `^` = ctrl):
+
+- `^D` for EOF (`eof`)
+- `^C` for interrupt (`intr`)
+- `^U` for kill (`kill`)
+
+and various others. But if you don't know this you can find out through the
+`stty(1)` command with the `-a` option. For instance with macOS you might see:
+
+```sh
+$ stty -a
+speed 9600 baud; rows 40; columns 155;
+intr = ^C; quit = ^\; erase = ^?; kill = ^U; eof = ^D; [..snip..]
+```
+
+If you know the name you can use `grep` to find the correct line and if your
+implementation of `grep(1)` has the `-o` option you can filter it. For instance
+to find what the `intr` is set to:
+
+```sh
+$ stty -a |grep -o 'intr = ^[[:alpha:]]'
+intr = ^C
+```
+
+... assuming of course that it's a ctrl combination :-) If for some strange
+reason it's not you might have to do something else including just piping it to
+just `grep intr` or whatever.
