name: Listen for CTRL+C
---
The `ctrl+c` shortcut sends an _interrupt signal_ to the running process. This signal can be intercepted by listening for the `SIGINT` event. If you want to close the process, you must explicitly call `process.exit()`.
```ts
process.on("SIGINT", () => {
console.log("Ctrl-C was pressed");
process.exit();
});
```
