> In Jeroen's API, I can see what the Python-level signal handler is, but there's no way to find out whether that signal handler is actually in use or not.
I added support for that in the latest cysignals release. Now you can do
>>> import signal
>>> from cysignals.pysignals import getossignal, python_os_handler
>>> _ = signal.signal(signal.SIGINT, signal.default_int_handler)
>>> getossignal(signal.SIGINT) == python_os_handler
True
Note that cysignals is POSIX-only for now (it assumes sigaction), but the code could easily be ported to other systems. Ideally it would become part of CPython's signal module.
