Bug #86865 for Term-Pulse: include in the Pod proper procedure to die

Subject:

include in the Pod proper procedure to die

Hi there, I got some bugs in my code while running Term::Pulse and even after a die() being called (by my code) Term::Pulse keep running. To avoid such issues, it would be nice to include a reference to creating a callback to $SIG{__DIE__} as described in perlpod -f die: doing that makes it possible to call pulse_stop() before die(), like this: $SIG{__DIE__} = sub { pulse_stop() }; Just my $0,02 to improve Term::Pulse. ;-) My best regards, Alceu

Additionally, consider adding to the Pod a suggestion to create a handler for $SIG{INT}: $SIG{INT} = sub { die "Caught interrupt signal" }; By using both handlers, it is possible to stop Term::Pulse smoothly. Regards, Alceu
