Description Marko Myllynen 2016-04-14 14:06:13 UTC 
Description of problem:
After doing

$ pmie

you need to send a SIGKILL to terminate it.
Comment 1 Marko Myllynen 2016-07-21 18:11:28 UTC 
Seems that SIGQUIT also does the job; SIGTERM/SIGHUP/SIGINT doesn't. So perhaps it's a feature?
Comment 2 Ken McDonell 2016-07-21 20:43:25 UTC 
This is NOT a bug.

From the pmie(1) man page ...

       The expressions to be evaluated are read from configuration files spec‐
       ified by one or more filename arguments.  In the absence of  any  file‐
       name, expressions are read from standard input.

Please close this bug.
Comment 3 Frank Ch. Eigler 2016-07-21 20:52:44 UTC 
Most UNIX tools that parse their standard input also respect SIGINT etc. as a termination signal.  If pmie feels it must block those during input parsing, this unusual behaviour should be documented.
Comment 4 Ken McDonell 2016-07-21 21:31:40 UTC 
You are correct Farnk, my apologies.

I have committed the necessary (almost) trivial fix.
