luatex was stuck in the middle of compiling. I used Ctrl+C to break the compilation, but there was a ghost process still there.

I noticed that Taco always uses SIGQUIT (ctrl+\) rather than SIGINT (ctrl+c) with luatex. SIGQUIT usually results in a core dump but does not leave a ghost process.

Perhaps Luigi (or Taco) can explain why luatex does not handle SIGINT as we might expect?

on windows one can also end up with an aborted ghost process but not always so it probably has to to do with the place where luatex is aborted or crashes (if one aborts a tex loop it's often ok, but in something lua it can be worse) Hans ----------------------------------------------------------------- Hans Hagen | PRAGMA ADE Ridderstraat 27 | 8061 GH Hasselt | The Netherlands tel: 038 477 53 69 | voip: 087 875 68 74 | www.pragma-ade.com | www.pragma-pod.nl -----------------------------------------------------------------
