I would like to play with the signals and traps of the Korn shell ; could someone please direct me quickly to the relevant areas? I expect that they are trap.c , sigact.[ch] , main.c , and siglist.* . I found runtraps (in the shell function of main.c ) and it calls runtrap from within a for-loop . This seems to be how the traps are processed. How does the signal get to the shell? Is the kernel involved in any of this? How is it determined which process should field a signal? Is there a description of the various fields of the structures involved and how they are used somewhere in a book or on the internet? ________________________________________________________________________ Get Your Private, Free E-mail from MSN Hotmail at http://www.hotmail.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-hackers" in the body of the message
