13 Bash-4.2 does not attempt to save the shell history on receipt of a
14 terminating signal that is handled synchronously. Unfortunately, the
15 `close' button on most X11 terminal emulators sends SIGHUP, which
18 This is a very small patch to save the history in the case that an
19 interactive shell receives a SIGHUP or SIGTERM while in readline and
22 The next version of bash will do this differently.
24 Patch (apply with `patch -p0'):
