NAME
skill, snice - send a signal or report process status
SYNOPSIS
skill [signal to send] [options] process selection criteria
snice [new priority] [options] process selection criteria
DESCRIPTION
These tools are probably obsolete and unportable. The command
syntax is poorly defined. Consider using the killall, pkill,
and pgrep commands instead.
The default signal for skill is TERM. Use -l or -L to list available signals.
Particularly useful signals include HUP, INT, KILL, STOP, CONT, and 0.
Alternate signals may be specified in three ways: -9 -SIGKILL -KILL.
The default priority for snice is +4. (snice +4 ...)
Priority numbers range from +20 (slowest) to -20 (fastest).
Negative priority numbers are restricted to administrative users.
