[Qt-interest] QProcess SIGINT

[qt-interest at status.e4ward.com]

Ah! I THOUGHT I had a problem that was being caused by the program not  
dying, but I have another problem instead. The process I run with  
QProcess actually spawns a COPY of itself. So, the program QProcess  
runs dies just fine, but the copy continues running. Is there any way  
you can think of that I can kill this child process? Is QProcess aware  
of children?
