Hammer & Screwdriver Perl question about

Hello everybody, I am new at the forum and a total newbie when it comes to Unix.


I am trying to see how I can add the ability to kill a user's processes?

I want to add this to my Shel Script Add the code/process into a subroutine.

Also, I would like to use an array to store the list of processes that need to be reviewed and killed.

Lastly, how can I kill the process using the array?

Any help would be extremely benefitial.

Please and thank you!

KILL(1) 						      General Commands Manual							   KILL(1)

NAME
kill, broke - print commands to kill processes SYNOPSIS
kill name broke DESCRIPTION
Kill prints commands that will cause all processes called name and owned by the current user to be terminated. Use the send command of 81/2(1), or pipe the output of kill into rc(1) to execute the commands. Kill suggests sending a kill note to the process; the same message delivered to the process's ctl file (see proc(3)) is a surer, if heavy handed, kill, but is necessary if the offending process is ignoring notes. Broke prints commands that will cause all processes in the Broken state and owned by the current user to go away. When a process dies because of an error caught by the system, it may linger in the Broken state to allow examination with a debugger. Executing the commands printed by broke lets the system reclaim the resources used by the broken processes. SOURCE
