Was this something that was fixed recently? Last I checked on GNU/ Linux, Pd wasn't quitting on SIGTERM, I had to send SIGKILL. It seems to work now, maybe it was due to some peculiarities.
Is there any harm to adding SIGTERM to trigger sys_exithandler()?

TERM kills Pd just fine on linux... I'm not sure, but I remember finding Pd harder to kill on Macintoshes, but never understood why.

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)
