I have a program that ignores SIGINT but that I want to run in the foreground. I would like to find a way to force it to close on Ctrl-C. Is there any way to write a wrapper (that you'd call
./wrapper.sh my_program
) that would force the misbehaving program to quit, potentially by detecting the ignored SIGINT and generating a SIGKILL?
