on SuSE list, noticed a tiny bash script which is handy :-
...........................
#!/bin/sh

# kill process/program

while true
do
kill -9 `ps aux | grep -i $1 | awk '{ print $2 }'` sleep 2
done
...........................
remember " +x " - it needs chmod +x to make script executable.
it is handy when, for example, Kmail gets stuck :-
as root, command : kl kmail
- this will kill Kmail
or, if cups is not working right, then, delete the print-queue, and , as
root, command :-
____________
kl cups
kl parallel
..............
then, re-starts the cups daemon with command : rccups start
best rgds
________
Outside of having the signal built in the command, is there any
defference between doing this script, and using the killall command?
