Hi, I'm sure this is an FAQ but I couldn't find the answer in the archives or docs. Before spawning the shell (or whatever process it happens to be) Eterm resets most signal handlers to SIG_DFL but skips SIGPIPE. This causes problems in shells that don't reset it. Is there a reason SIGPIPE is skipped or is it just an oversight?
You can see the problem by running something like: yes | grep y | more and then quiting more. I think both bash and zsh reset signals on start so you will need to be running something like /bin/sh under FreeBSD or tcsh. I have patched my local copy of eterm and have noticed no ill effects so far.
