    The line should look like:

    DEFINE __main=__tinymain

    The ^C trapping appears to be in the prelude to various C library
    functions. Particularly the IO ones (fread, etc). The solution is not
    to use those functions.

    The other solution is to find out what name these functions are
    calling and write your own do-nothing function with the same name.
    Your routine will be used instead of the library routine, and you'll
    be set.

    If you're using the C library functions, they'll clean up
    automatically when you exit(). This applies to the fopen() file
    facilities and the malloc() memory management.
