David,
That'd make sense. I'm still leaning towards procps. The only
reason I've gotten into this discussion is that I've had kill seem
to be a bit random in it's success. However, I suspect it is due
to bash's built-in and the individual program being killed.
Maybe I should alias kill=/bin/kill and do more testing.
Would there be any objections to generating a KILL make
procps an optional provider of KILL?
Thanks.
Dale
