what are some problems with quitting programs in the terminal you’ve run into? so far I have:

- not knowing how to quit vim (or some other program like nano etc)
- programs not responding to ctrl c
- a background program being killed when you close your shell

what am i missing?

@b0rk there's the issue that you might think you've quit the program, but it has left around child processes that become zombies, which might still be doing the task you thought you stopped
