Hi, I use texlua to start a luatex run. When I press control-c on the command line, the texlua script stops, but the luatex run continues. Is there any way I can set a signal handler and kill the luatex process? Patrick

Indeed this is a annoying but afaik it depends on what luatex is doing. Sometimes killing the run works ok, but sometimes it sticks.

Thanks. I am thinking about switching to another start-script language anyway, so this not a showstopper anymore. Patrick
