162=head2 SIGNAL WATCHERS
163
164You can listen for signals using a signal watcher, C<signal> is the signal
165I<name> without any C<SIG> prefix. Multiple signals events can be clumped
166together into one callback invocation, and callback invocation might or
167might not be asynchronous.
168
169These watchers might use C<%SIG>, so programs overwriting those signals
170directly will likely not work correctly.
171
172Example: exit on SIGINT
173
174 my $w = AnyEvent->signal (signal => "INT", cb => sub { exit 1 });
175
176=head2 CHILD PROCESS WATCHERS
177
178You can also listen for the status of a child process specified by the
179C<pid> argument (or any child if the pid argument is 0). The watcher will
180trigger as often as status change for the child are received. This works
181by installing a signal handler for C<SIGCHLD>. The callback will be called with
182the pid and exit status (as returned by waitpid).
183
184Example: wait for pid 1333
185
186 my $w = AnyEvent->child (pid => 1333, cb => sub { warn "exit status $?" });

191
192=item $AnyEvent::MODEL
193
194Contains C<undef> until the first watcher is being created. Then it
195contains the event model that is being used, which is the name of the
196Perl class implementing the model. This class is usually one of the
197C<AnyEvent::Impl:xxx> modules, but can be any other class in the case
198AnyEvent has been extended at runtime (e.g. in I<rxvt-unicode>).
199
200The known classes so far are:
201
202 AnyEvent::Impl::CoroEV based on Coro::EV, best choice.
203 AnyEvent::Impl::EV based on EV (an interface to libev, also best choice).
204 AnyEvent::Impl::Coro based on Coro::Event, second best choice.
205 AnyEvent::Impl::Event based on Event, also second best choice :)
206 AnyEvent::Impl::Glib based on Glib, second-best choice.
207 AnyEvent::Impl::Tk based on Tk, very bad choice.
208 AnyEvent::Impl::Perl pure-perl implementation, inefficient.
209
210=item AnyEvent::detect
211
212Returns C<$AnyEvent::MODEL>, forcing autodetection of the event model if
213necessary. You should only call this function right before you would have
214created an AnyEvent watcher anyway, that is, very late at runtime.
