# Unix signal sending and handling for Racket
A small example:
```racket
(require unix-signals)
(capture-signal! 'SIGUSR1)
(capture-signal! 'SIGUSR2)
(let loop ()
(define signum (read-signal))
(printf "Received signal ~v (name ~v)\n" signum (lookup-signal-name signum))
(loop))
```
Be warned: Don't try to capture `SIGSEGV`, `SIGBUS` or other signals
that Racket already treats specially.
