NAME
       stCatchSigs, stInterruptAction, stQuitAction, stTermAction, stCleanup, stExit - signal handling

SYNOPSIS
       #include <config.h>
       #include <sttk.h>

       void stCatchSigs (void);

       Sfunc_t(*stInterruptAction)();

       Sfunc_t(*stQuitAction)();

       Sfunc_t(*stTermAction)();

       void stCleanup (void);

       void stExit (int exitCode);

DESCRIPTION
       stCatchSigs  activates a number of interrupt handlers, defined internally in the ShapeTools toolkit library. Interrupt handlers are defined
       for the signals SIGINT, SIGQUIT, SIGFPE, SIGBUS, SIGSEGV, and SIGTERM.  All interrupt handlers, except the one for  SIGINT,  cause  program
       termination after having done some cleanup work. The cleanup consists of removing all temporary files by calling stRmRegisteredFiles(3).

       Some  of  the  signal handlers are capable to execute functions defined by the application, while handling the interrupt. This mechanism is
       activated by assigning a functions address to the appropriate variable. The following is a complete List.

       Signal  Variable

       SIGINT  stInterruptAction

       SIGQUIT
	       stQuitAction

       SIGTERM
	       stTermAction

       stCleanup calls stRmRegisteredFiles(3) to remove all temporary files and the AtFS function af_cleanup(3) that orders AtFS's affairs.

       stExit does the same as stCleanup and additionally end the program execution returning exitCode.
