    in documentation of "signal"
    http://docs.python.org/library/signal.html
    ---------------------------------
    signal.SIG_DFL
    This is one of two standard signal handling options; it will simply
    perform the default function for the signal. For example, on most
    systems the default action for SIGQUIT is to dump core and exit, while
    the default action for SIGCLD is to simply ignore it.
    ---------------------------------
    Typo:
    SIGCLD
    should be
    SIGCHLD
