How does qtVlm handle linux SIGTERM signal? was created by A.R.
Hi all,
Beginning qtVlm user here. I have assembled a Raspberry Pi 5 with a UPS so I can start and stop the computer just by switching on and off the navigation equipment and the UPS will safely signal the Pi to power down via the shutdown command.
I am under the impression that the state of qtVlm is not saved when it is shut down externally instead of using the Quit (and thus save) menu item. Which makes me wonder how qtVlm responds to the SIGTERM signal used in Linux to signal a program to nicely quit. Does it do a quit and save or a quit without saving?
Kind regards, Arjen

Thank you for this feedback.
Indeed this was not handled. I added something for SIGTERM, I can easily enhanced this with other SIG
if needed.
It will be available on next version and we might have in between a beta. Can you confirm which version/flavour of qtVlm you are using ?
