If I have the following shell script



sleep 30s



And I hit Ctrl+C when the shell script is running, the sleep dies with it.



If I have the following shell script



sleep 30s &
wait



And I hit Ctrl+C when the shell script is running, the sleep continues on, and now has a parent of 1.



Why is that? Doesn't bash propagate Ctrl+C to all the children?
