I'm using emacs (25.1) as an X11 client. Right now, for some reason, my emacs gets stuck. What I'd like to do is send it a signal from a separate terminal. I can do that but in all cases, emacs just exits. I've tried SIGHUP, SIGINT, and SIGTERM. Is there a way to send a signal to emacs that emacs will catch and get out of whatever loop it might be in at the time? So far, I have not been able to find a method to do that. Thank you, Perry
