- The kkiilllleexxpprr command is used to a user's processes whose
- command line contains one of a set of regular expressions.
- The regular expression arguments are 'or'ed together to form
- a single expression that compared to the command lines of
- the user's processes. If a match is found the process is
- sent a SIGTERM signal, followed by a SIGKILL signal. The
- expression arguments are often simple strings, but can be
- more complex regular expressions of the form found in Perl.
- A process will be killed even if the expression matches only
- part of a word. If you want the expression to match an
- entire word in the command line then you should surround the
- argument with spaces.
