I'm writing some command line tooling stuff, and one of the command spins up a docker compose file (which in short, spins up some services and aggregates the output of each service to stdout).

When a user presses ctrl+c, i would like to pass on the ctrl+c to the spawned process and wait till it handles ctrl+c and then let go of the current process.

So far I have this:

int spawnedPid;

extern(C) int kill(int pid, int sig) nothrow @nogc @system;

extern(C) void interruptHandler(int sig) nothrow @nogc @system {
     kill(spawnedPid, sig);
}

int spawnProcessAndWait(string[] cmd) {
     auto pid = spawnProcess(cmd, stdin, stdout, stderr);
     spawnedPid = pid.processID;
     signal(SIGINT, &interruptHandler);
     int result = wait(pid);
     return wait(pid);
}

It doesn't work. I think the call to kill doesn't wait? Is there a way to make it wait?

Hm.. are you sure that ctrl-c isn't also sending the signal to your child process? I thought it did.
