[Scottish] Trapping SIGINTR in shell scripts

Hi Folks,
I've got a "run-parts" shell script that runs all executables in a directory
that I use.
-- snip active bit--
for i in $1/* ; do
[ -d $i ] && continue
if [ -x $i ]; then
$i
fi
done
-- end section --
However what I want to happen is if I press ctrl-c (SIGINTR 2)
that my "run-parts" script doesn't stop, but the presently running script
below stops.
do I simply get my run-parts script to ignore ctrl-c
(ie trap "" 2)
or is it more complicated than this...
Andrew
