No such thing as a signal in Windoze (at least not in the UNIX sense). What they do when you type like a CTRL-C is create a new thread in the process and the process can then be terminated by exiting from the new thread (a signal handler can be used to execute some signal specific code and I believe it's called from the new thread somehow). -- ,-/- __ _ _ $Bill Luebkert Mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] (_/ / ) // // DBE Collectibles Mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] / ) /--< o // // Castle of Medieval Myth & Magic http://www.todbe.com/ -/-' /___/_<_</_</_ http://dbecoll.tripod.com/ (My Perl/Lakers stuff) _______________________________________________ ActivePerl mailing list ActivePerl@listserv.ActiveState.com To unsubscribe: http://listserv.ActiveState.com/mailman/mysubs
