Package: psmisc
Version: 22.11-1
Severity: minor
Squeeze system, up-to-date as of 5 minutes ago (but issue is present since
at least Debian 3.0, psmisc 20.2-2.1)
$ killall xx1 xx2 xx3 xx4 xx5 xx6 xx7 xx8 xx9 xx10 xx11 xx12 xx13 xx14 \

xx29 xx30 xx31 xx32 xx33 xx34
Maximum number of names is 32
While this could preferably be converted to a neatly limitless operation,
I would suggest at least:
1) a clear note in the manpage; and
2) prefix of error message with "killall: " so people know what exactly
their long script is doing wrong; and
3) fixing the off-by-one.
Best regards,
Anne Bezemer
