On Linux, is it possible to somehow disable signaling for programs externally... that is, without modifying their source code?
Context:
The solutions explained above are not working for me, even by chaining the both commands proposed by Caf.
However, I finally succeeded in getting the expected behavior this way :
#!/bin/zsh
setopt MONITOR
TRAPINT() { print AAA }
print 1
( ./child & ; wait)
print 2
If I press Ctrl-C while child
is running, it will wait that it exits, then will print AAA and 2. child
will not receive any signals.
The subshell is used to prevent the PID from being shown.
And sorry... this is for zsh though the question is for bash, but I do not know bash enough to provide an equivalent script.
