And SIGBREAK (it being missing from this list is a doc bug). > from https://docs.python.org/3.5/library/signal.html > > 9 may still work?? Dunno... That's signal, not kill. You can call kill on Windows with any integer. Only CTRL_C_EVENT and CTRL_BREAK_EVENT (which aren't, AIUI, equal to SIGINT and SIGBREAK, which is unfortunate for cross-platform code) do anything interesting, the rest call TerminateProcess with the given value. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
