I agree that we should have a "signal" aware version of c_c_e rather than re-utilizing what we have. The PR's main point was that one key problem was using exit() instead of _exit() and *that's* a new one on me, if it's even true. Hell, some default handlers call exit() directly... -- =========================================================================== Jim Jagielski [|] [EMAIL PROTECTED] [|] http://www.jaguNET.com/ "A society that will trade a little liberty for a little order will lose both and deserve neither"
