Raise exception on console stop

[Nodd]

Description

What steps will reproduce the problem?

1. Stop or kill a running process in a python console

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The program stops correctly, but without any information about where it was when it stopped. This information would be useful to debug hanging or long running programs. In a standard console hitting ctrl+C would raise a keyboardInterrupt showing the full stack trace, while in spyder stopping the program is done silently.

Interesting idea, but I don't know how it could be implemented...

I have the same interrogation ! Is it possible to send a virtual ctrl+C to the console ?

[ccordoba12]

Closing because the Python console is going to be removed in Spyder 3.2.

Please see issue #4524 for our reasons to do this.
