Here is a patch with some tests and doc changes.

I'm having trouble coming up with tests which will work with CTRL_C_EVENT and CTRL_BREAK_EVENT. Based on my understanding of GenerateConsoleCtrlEvent, I figured this example (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms685049%28v=VS.85%29.aspx) would be receptive to CTRL+C when started as a subprocess, but it doesn't work. I also figured "python -c "input()"" started as a subprocess could be killed with CTRL_C_EVENT, but it doesn't work either.
