187Call the callback when signal $signum is received. 220Call the callback when $signal is received (the signal can be specified
221by number or by name, just as with kill or %SIG). Signal watchers are
222persistent no natter what.
223
224EV will grab the signal for the process (the kernel only allows one
225component to receive signals) when you start a signal watcher, and
226removes it again when you stop it. Pelr does the same when you add/remove
227callbacks to %SIG, so watch out.
228
229Unfortunately, only one handler can be registered per signal. Screw
230libevent.
