Shell script

Realy stuck, I'm a total scripting nooby

I need a bash-shell script that terminates all processes of a certain name which is given to the shell script as argument.

Any help would be so greatly appreciated

Thanks again

List the running process

Code: Select all

$ [B]ps[/B]
PID TTY TIME CMD

Then Kill it

Code: Select all

$ [B]kill[/B] [color="red"]1293[/color]
[2]+ Terminated MyProgram

Help

Code: Select all

$ help [B]kill[/B]
