[ROOT] Temporarily replacing the ^C (interrupt signal) handler

Hi,

I'm trying to temporarily replace the default interrupt signal handler
in the Rint environment to be able to terminate an event loop in 
synchronous fashion. Something like

	gApplication->GetSignalHandler()->Remove();
	fpTAGrootInterruptHandler->Add()

	... do my thing, checking a flag after each event ...

	fpTAGrootInterruptHandler->Remove();
	gApplication->GetSignalHandler()->Add();

That had all kinds of effects, short of the desired one.

So I wonder what the proper way is to address this standart issue.


			Thanks in advance,

				Walter F.J. Mueller
