Isnt it ps ( in a terminal) to get the PID for Firefox, then kill "PID"?

Bill

Still a newbie

killall -SIGNAL processname
kill -SIGNAL pid

work the same.

I have tried sending various signals to firefox

-TERM   firefox exits "unexpectedly"; restarts with an error warning
-HUP    same as -TERM
-INT    same as -TERM
-USR1   same as -TERM
etc.

-QUIT   firefox crashes and burns

It would be nice if there were a command-line arg that disables
the annoying warning on startup after a crash.

cheers
