KILL(1) UNIX Programmer's Manual KILL(1)

== NAME ==
kill - terminate a process with extreme prejudice

== SYNOPSIS ==
kill [ -signo ] processid ...

== DESCRIPTION ==
_K_i_l_l sends signal 15 (terminate) to the specified processes.
If a signal number preceded by `-' is given as first argu-
ment, that signal is sent instead of terminate (see _s_i_g_-
_n_a_l(2)). This will kill processes that do not catch the
signal; in particular `kill -9 ...' is a sure kill.

By convention, if process number 0 is specified, all members
in the process group (i.e. processes resulting from the
current login) are signaled.

The killed processes must belong to the current user unless
he is the super-user. To shut the system down and bring it
up single user the super-user may use `kill -1 1'; see
_i_n_i_t(8).

The process number of an asynchronous process started with
`&' is reported by the shell. Process numbers can also be
found by using _p_s(1).
