I don't think there are any docs available for them (at least, there's nothing on Mono.Posix in my local copy of Monodoc), but afaict, they're just straight p/invoke wrappers around the native functions, so just check the relevant man pages (man 2 signal and man 7 signal). (actually... looking at the source, there's a Signals enum, which is marked with a [Map] attribute, which the comments say needs to be run through a c helper function to map the enum values to the correct underlying value used by the system, BUT, Syscall.signal() takes a raw int for the signum... so i have no idea if it will work portably at the moment...) -- Mike Roome _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
