The std lib's `pdb` internals override SIGINT handling whenever one enters the debugger repl. Force a handler that kills the tree if SIGINT is triggered from the root actor, otherwise igore it since supervised children should be managed already. This resolves an issue with guest mode where `pdb` causes SIGINTs to be swallowed resulting in the host loop never terminating the process tree. |

tractor
A structured concurrent, async-native "actor model" built on trio and multiprocessing.
tractor
is an attempt to bring trionic structured concurrency to distributed multi-core Python; it aims to be the Python multi-processing framework you always wanted.
tractor
lets you spawn trio
"actors": processes which each run a trio
scheduled task tree (also known as an async sandwich). Actors communicate by exchanging asynchronous messages and avoid sharing any state. This model allows for highly distributed software architecture which works just as well on multiple cores as it does over many hosts.
The first step to grok tractor
is to get the basics of trio
down. A great place to start is the trio docs and this blog post.

Feel like saying hi?
This project is very much coupled to the ongoing development of trio
(i.e. tractor
gets most of its ideas from that brilliant community). If you want to help, have suggestions or just want to say hi, please feel free to reach us on in our matrix channel. If matrix seems too hip, we're also mostly all in the the trio gitter channel!
