Hi, I'm developing a program that interfaces with TeXmacs and as I debug my software and must recompile my program. Consequently it is becoming time consuming to have to first "close the session" and then
delete the output of that session and then start a new session every
time I recompile for even the smallest tweak.

According to the manual TeXmacs can send an interrupt signal (SIGINT), but that will just stop the current computation if it isn't waiting for input. I did a quick grep of the TeXmacs scheme source and didn't find anything about how to send signals. Is there a way I could write a function to send my program SIGHUP and then clear the contents of the current session node? Thanks!
