No. SIGSTOP actually stops (i.e., suspends) the process to which it is sent. (SIGCONT restarts.) If you hit control-s at the terminal, the terminal's process is still running, but all output is suspended. I don't think hitting control-s or control-q actually sends a Unix signal; they're interpreted by the terminal driver. > You can probably change it with stty if you like. You can; see the stty manpage for details. (The relevant settings are `stop' and `start'.) Richard
