Hi all,

here is some code I am trying to understand. The two main things that I do not get are the reasoning behind the typedef, and the reason for saying signal(SIGINT, SIG_IGN);

Thanks in advance for any help! Wikipedia was useful but only got me so far

typedef void (*sighandler_t)(int);

void handle_signal(int signo)
{
// return to shell
printf("\n[MY_SHELL ] ");

// Force stdout to flush its buffers
fflush(stdout);
}

int main(int argc, char* argv[])
{
signal(SIGINT, SIG_IGN);
signal(SIGINT, handle_signal);
