restoring signal handlers
Is it necessary to restore original signal handlers before quitting a
program? I can see saving them if I want to restore them at some middle
point of execution, but if I want my own handlers in place for the entire
life of my app, do I need to bother saving and restoring the originals?

Programmers don't die, they just GOSUB without RETURN.
