We should put an end to saying "orphan", "kill child", "zombie".
Anyone,
We should change the awful metaphors used in the language of managing Unix processes. I believe that this still humbly local initiative hides a great importance of how the world of Unix looks and feels to every user.

IXPC(1) General Commands Manual IXPC(1)
NAME
ixpc - ixp client
SYNOPSIS
ixpc [-a address] action file
ixpc -v
DESCRIPTION
Overview
ixpc is a client to access a 9P file server from the command line or from shell scripts. It can be used to configure wmii(1).
Options
-a address
Lets you specify the address to which ixpc will establish a connection. If this option is not supplied, and the environment variable
IXP_ADDRESS is set, ixpc will use this value as its address. Currently, the address can only be a unix socket file or a tcp socket.
The syntax for address is taken (along with many other profound ideas) from the Plan 9 operating system and has the form
unix!/path/to/socket for unix socket files, and tcp!hostname!port for tcp sockets.
-v Prints version information to stdout, then exits.
The syntax of the actions is as follows:
write Writes the supplied data from the standard input to file, overwriting any previous data. The data to be written is arbitrary and
only gains meaning (and restrictions) when it is interpreted by wmiiwm(1). See EXAMPLES below.
xwrite The same as write, but the data is taken from subsequent arguments, rather than the standard input.
create Creates file or directory. If the file exists, nothing is done.
ls Lists files and directories.
read Reads file or directory contents.
remove Removes file or directory tree.
ENVIRONMENT
IXP_ADDRESS
See above.
EXAMPLES
ixpc ls /
This prints the root directory of the wmii filesystem, if IXP_ADDRESS is set to the address of wmii. For more information about the
contents of this filesystem, see wmiiwm(1).
ixpc xwrite /ctl quit
Write 'quit' to the main control file of the wmii filesystem, effectively leaving wmii.
ixpc write /keys < keys.txt
Replace the contents of /keys with the contents of keys.txt
