Mmmm. Process snapshotting. I'm afraid that feature does not exist
on Mac OS X, so you'll have to simulate this yourself with manual
labor behind the scenes. Sweep all of your program's state into well-
known data structures, save those data structures when you get the
signal, add logic to the program which detects saved state files and
allows itself to resume from them, you're done. It's all "just a
simple matter of coding" as we like to say. :-)

I need to run a custom program that I expect to need several weeks
of (wall clock) time to complete.
How can I set up and run so that I can save state on any signal, and
having my program automatically resumed
on start up, with as little extra work as possibly when resuming.
My program is a pure batch job, by the way.
