pkill (see pgrep) is a command-line utility initially written for use with the Solaris 7 operating system in 1998. It has since been reimplemented for Linux and some BSDs. As with the kill and killall commands, pkill is used to send signals to processes. The pkill command allows the use of extended regular expression patterns and other matching ...

For instance, to kill a process such as an instance of the XMMS music player invoked by xmms, the user would run the command killall xmms.

In computing, the process identifier (a.k.a. process ID or PID) is a number used by most operating system kernels—such as those of Unix, macOS and Windows—to uniquely identify an active process. This number may be used as a parameter in various function calls, allowing processes to be manipulated, such as adjusting the process's priority or ...
Similarly, the kill(1) command allows a user to send signals to processes. The raise(3) library function sends the specified signal to the current process. Exceptions such as division by zero , segmentation violation ( SIGSEGV ), and floating point exception ( SIGFPE ) will cause a core dump and terminate the program.
A command-line interface is a means of interacting with a computer program where the user issues commands to the program by typing in successive lines of text (command lines). MySQL ships with many command line tools, from which the main interface is the mysql client. [123] [124]

The concept of a job maps the (shell) concept of a single shell command to the (operating system) concept of the possibly many processes that the command entails. Multi-process tasks come about because processes may create additional child processes, and a single shell command may consist of a pipeline of multiple communicating processes. For ...
