When you run configure on your machine, one of the tests should say something like checking what style of signals to use... POSIX_SIGNALS I'm curious if anyone has been using zsh on a machine that returns BSD_SIGNALS or SYSV_SIGNALS for this configure check. I'm planning on doing some more work on the signals code and wondered if keeping all the compatability code around was useful to anyone. I believe almost every machine around should have the posix signals by now. rc
