# 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.ts icon="https://mintcdn.com/bun-1dd33a4e-farm-dc5e99a7-serve-route-target-normalization/irnPaIf5BInKUovc/icons/typescript.svg?fit=max&auto=format&n=irnPaIf5BInKUovc&q=85&s=749f5ca3fc8733d63266eddb19569000" theme={null}
process.on("SIGINT", () => {
  console.log("Ctrl-C was pressed");
  process.exit();
});
```
