      Description

      tricky to test, and not sure if this is OSX/shadowJar specific, but if you call jalview from the command line via java -jar shadowjar.jar and do something that causes it to run out of memory or otherwise hang, CTRL+C kills the parent Jalview launcher, but the child Jalview process is left.

      The launcher should do a SIGKILL on its child process.. if possible.
