Command kill

Mark background slot 1 or 2 as finished.

Synopsis

kill pid

Ordinary invocation: foreground child, PID 3; the shell waits. Not an allowed pipe producer.

Parameters

Parameter	Meaning
`pid`	1 or 2; the slot must have been allocated.

Description

Sets the slot state to DONE and its recorded exit code to 130. It is a cooperative job-control operation, not a POSIX signal. A subsequent RUN may reuse the slot.

Examples

run count
kill 1
wait 1

Limits and side effects

PID 0 and PID 3 are not valid targets. There are no signal numbers, process groups or asynchronous kill commands typed while the shell is blocked in a foreground application.

Status and diagnostics

Success is status 0. Relevant status codes: 8. See the diagnostic reference.
