I know that (from libraries/dos*.h)
signal name number mask
SIGBREAKF_CTRL_F 15 00008000
SIGBREAKF_CTRL_E 14 00004000
SIGBREAKF_CTRL_D 13 00002000
SIGBREAKF_CTRL_C 12 00001000
and I've gathered from experience debugging `hung' tasks with
XOper (Time to look at the XOper source, I have no idea how it wants
me to identity a `Process', for a Signal operation...) that:
SignalSemaphore 4 00000010
Dos Process.pr_MsgPort 8 00000100
but I've yet to come across a reference to other 10 signals. I came
across a process stuck with a SigWait of 00000080, which I've never
seen before... (It could very well be errant code that lead me into
Wait()ing for signal 7, but I'd like to know for sure.)
I think email replies would probably be best for this, I'll certainly
summerise. (Yes, I have read the RKMs, I know 1.2 Exec nearly as well
as I know HHGG. I read the three HHGG about 13 times while recovering
from a downhill racing accident...)
Thanks.
