# Listen for CTRL+C

The `ctrl+c` shortcut sends an *interrupt signal* to the running process. Intercept it by listening for the `SIGINT` event. To close the process, you must explicitly call `process.exit()`.

```ts process.ts icon="https://mintcdn.com/bun-1dd33a4e-farm-2d0df50e-sql-result-columns/SDsnVNTwMwj9Wrny/icons/typescript.svg?fit=max&auto=format&n=SDsnVNTwMwj9Wrny&q=85&s=69cebd072149670446c6a48d167a301b" theme={"theme":{"light":"github-light","dark":"dracula"}}
process.on("SIGINT", () => {
  console.log("Ctrl-C was pressed");
  process.exit();
});
```
