Hi,
I'm running the following simple test script:
#!/bin/ksh -x
trap 'eval $(resize)' WINCH
while true; do
sleep 10
done
What I'm noticing is that the WINCH signal action is not actually
carried out until at the end of the sleep, should the signal be sent
during the sleep period.
I'm wondering if this is the behaviour I should expect or not. I
initially expected the signal to interrupt the sleep. The SUSv3
documentation for the sleep(1) utility says "The sleep utility shall
take the standard action for all other signals [other than ALRM]."
(for the ALRM signal, there is a number of things that could happen,
which is not interesting right now).
(the WINCH signal is delivered when the terminal window changes size)
Any thoughts?
Regards,
Andreas
