     KILL(C)		      XENIX System V		       KILL(C)

     Name
	  kill - Terminates a process.

     Syntax
	  kill [ -signo ] processid ...

     Description
	  kill sends signal 15 (terminate) to the specified processes.
	  This will normally kill processes that do not catch or
	  ignore the signal.  The process number of each asynchronous
	  process started with & is reported by the shell (unless more
	  than one process is started in a pipeline, in which case the
	  number of the last process in the pipeline is reported).
	  Process numbers can also be found by using ps(C).

	  For example, if process number 0 is specified, all processes
	  in the process group are signaled.

	  The killed process must belong to the current user unless he
	  is the super-user.

	  If a signal number preceded by - is given as the first
	  argument, that signal is sent instead of the terminate
	  signal (see signal(S)).  In particular ``kill -9 ...'' is a
	  sure kill.

     See Also
	  ps(C), sh(C), kill(S), signal(S)
