Back at Bell Labs, runninb UNIX, I occasionally had to kill jobs in
process, using KILL. Now, I am somewhat confused as to what the proper
syntax is, and I am stuck with the following two jobs, hello, and hell
(no swearing, just a modified 'hello;). Can an expert provide me with
the proper KILL syntax for killing these jobs. I do remember that the
number 9 may have been used, as it appears to be a 'KILL' instruct.
Thanks.

/home/tfilm.213:jobs
[2] + Running hello
[1] - Running hell

Doesn't KILL alsu make use of the (bracketed) job number, i.e. [2] and
[1[?
