1786=head1 SIGNALS
1787
1788AnyEvent currently installs handlers for these signals:
1789
1790=over 4
1791
1792=item SIGCHLD
1793
1794A handler for C<SIGCHLD> is installed by AnyEvent's child watcher
1795emulation for event loops that do not support them natively. Also, some
1796event loops install a similar handler.
1797
1798=item SIGPIPE
1799
1800A no-op handler is installed for C<SIGPIPE> when C<$SIG{PIPE}> is C<undef>
1801when AnyEvent gets loaded.
1802
1803The rationale for this is that AnyEvent users usually do not really depend
1804on SIGPIPE delivery (which is purely an optimisation for shell use, or
1805badly-written programs), but C<SIGPIPE> can cause spurious and rare
1806program exits as a lot of people do not expect C<SIGPIPE> when writing to
1807some random socket.
1808
1809The rationale for installing a no-op handler as opposed to ignoring it is
1810that this way, the handler will be restored to defaults on exec.
1811
1812Feel free to install your own handler, or reset it to defaults.
