follow the some suggestions in this question Keyboard Interrupts with python's multiprocessing Pool, I write the test code named test.py

from multiprocessing import Pool
from multiprocessing.pool import IMapIterator
import fileinput

def wrapper(func):
  def wrap(self, timeout=None):
  # Note: the timeout of 1 googol seconds introduces a rather subtle
  # bug for Python scripts intended to run many times the age of the universe.
  return func(self, timeout=timeout if timeout is not None else 1e100)
return wrap
IMapIterator.next = wrapper(IMapIterator.next)

def main():
    p = Pool(1)
    try:
        for _ in p.imap(worker, fileinput.input(), 1):
            pass
    except KeyboardInterrupt:
        p.terminate()

def worker(line):
    print line

if __name__ == '__main__':
    main()

when I run python test.py in terminal:

python test.py

I still got the KeyboardInterrupt traceback, furthermore I have to send Ctrl^C two times to stop the script. How Can I handle KeyboardInterrupt and let it not print the tarceback and just use one time Ctrl^c to stop it gracefully.

Look at signal module included in standard library. You can register signal handler in main process

from signal import *

def siginthndlr(sig, frame):
    '''do what you need here'''
    print "Keyboard interrupt catched"

signal(SIGINT, siginthndlr) #Register SIGINT handler function

that would gracefully kill worker processes and than kill main process.
