Hi Marco,
I agree and I didn't want to rant. I just consider robustness and I
can not rely on or guarantee that cygwin kill ist used. (It is the
user of the Windows machine being creative ;-)
I scratch my head if we have a similar situation in GNU/Linux.
If anything went havoc I so far supposed that exit code or abrupt
script breakdown (stop) cares about not doing nasty things.
So at the moment if you consider the OS or a user kills a process with
Taskmanager we have to use another error handling in scripts at the
moment. Is that true in GNU/Linux as well? What do you think? I can't
find a clear answer in the www so far.
If it is similar in GNU/Linux we have a general problem I suppose. If
it is a cygwin thing, it is a feature which behaves different to the
real posix world?!
Greetings lopiuh
