Emacs undo keystroke
Line 2:
 
Under most [[UNIX]] based operating systems control-\ is used to terminate a running [[process (computing)|process]] from a [[shell (computing)|command shell]] and have it produce a [[core dump|memory core dump]] by sending it a [[SIGQUIT]] [[signal (computing)|signal]].
 
In the [[Emacs]] text editor, it is the default keystroke mapping for the [[undo]] function (''cf.'' [[Control-Z|Ctrl-Z]] in other editors).
