In the cygwin-apps I have seen some messages
http://sources.redhat.com/ml/cygwin-apps/2002-01/msg00340.html about a killall
util, which was going to be part of the cygutils packages but was waiting
because of licensing problems.

For killall I'm using a good working script for about a half year. Perhaps
anyone like this to integrate in the cygutils package. This script allows
killing more than one task, because it does a grep with the first param.

syntax: killall <taskname> | <tasknamepart>


$ cat /bin/killall
ps -ea | grep $1 | gawk '$1 ~ /^[^SI]/ { system("kill -9 " $1); }'

Regards

Ralf Habacker
