+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.I Kill
+prints commands that will cause all processes with 
+.I name
+and owned by the current user to be terminated.
+Each command is commented with an output line from
+.IR ps (1)
+describing the process that would be killed.
+Use the
+.B send
+command of
+.IR 9term (1),
+or pipe the output of
+.I kill
+into
+.IR rc (1)
+or
+.IR sh (1)
+to execute the commands.
+.PP
+.I Kill
+suggests sending a Unix
+.B TERM
+signal to the process; 
+sending a
+.B KILL
+signal is a surer, if heavy handed, kill,
+but is necessary if the offending process is
+ignoring signals.
+The
+.I slay
+command prints commands to do this.
+.PP
+.I Stop
+prints commands to pause execution of processes
+by sending them the
+.B STOP
+signal.
+.PP
+.I Start
+prints commands to restart stopped processes by sending them
+the
+.B CONT
+signal.
