Is there any reason why Pd does not respond to SIGTERM? I just
thought I'd ask before I add it. It seems that oftentimes, Pd
doesn't die like a regular process, and you have to use kill -KILL.
I am guessing that is because it does not respond to SIGTERM, which
is the POSIX signal for quitting. (FYI: SIGQUIT is not actually for
quitting the processing, but for triggering a core dump: http://
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SIGQUIT)
