1 Hi List,
2
3 I have a shell script and want a uninterruptable sleep. /usr/bin/sleep
4 itself seems to have its own signal handlers. How is it possible to sleep
5 uninterruptable?

7 #!/bin/bash
8 trap "echo 'Ctrl+C should not work'" INT
9
10 for foo in 1 2 3; do
11 echo $foo
12 sleep 10
13 done
14 ## end of script
15
16 TIA,
