[Omar Andrés Zapata Mesa]

Hi all.

crtl+c is done! you can see de code in
http://github.com/omazapa/ipython/tree/master/IPython/zmq/

I wrote a new message type in this frontend`s method

def get_kernel_pid(self):
        omsg = self.session.send(self.request_socket,'pid_request')
        while True:
           #print "waiting recieve"
           rep = self.session.recv(self.request_socket)

           if rep is not None:
               self.kernel_pid=rep['content']['pid']
               break
           time.sleep(0.05)
        return self.kernel_pid

and y this one in kernel's class
def pid_request(self,ident,parent):
            pid_msg = {u'pid':self.kernel_pid,
                     'status':'ok'}
            self.session.send(self.reply_socket, 'pid_reply',pid_msg,
parent, ident)

then we have a new reuqest's type ''execute_request', 'complete_request',
'pid_request'

frontend's class  have the attribute kernel_pid and I call get_kernel_pig()
in the constructor.
then when I have captured KeyboardInterrupt  send signal SIGINT with kill

it is working.
