Remote desktop, close window
I have remote access to a desktop that runs a java application.
I want to terminate the application. I tried to close the application window (through the 'X') but it won;t close. I tried 'jobs' command but it does not list any jobs (?).
Is there anyway to list the current jobs and terminate the one that i am interested?

NAME

       gnome-desktop-item-edit - GNOME Desktop file editor

SYNOPSIS

       gnome-desktop-item-edit [--create-new] filename

DESCRIPTION

       gnome-desktop-item-edit	is  the GNOME Desktop file editor, which you can use to create or edit the .desktop (known as desktop) file. GNOME
       uses a standard desktop file specification as proposed by freedesktop.org.  A desktop file consists of a number of  name-value  pairs  that
       define  how  a  desktop	should organize a particular application. As this is defined as an open standard, integration of applications into
       GNOME Desktop is relatively straightforward.

       A basic entry in the desktop file must start with a tag called [Desktop Entry]. It can then have a number of name-value pairs as defined by
       the standard.  The minimum entries are as follows:

       Name		       the name of the application

       Comment		       a textual description of the application which is displayed as a tooltip message by gnome-panel. When set appropri-
			       ately, the comment can be localized within the same file.

       Exec		       the name of the actual executable

       Icon		       the file name of the icon image

       Type		       the desktop file type

       Categories	       a multi-string field which is used by gnome-panel to group applications into the appropriate categories.

       These desktop files provide the information to gnome-panel, which     places the application in the appropriate locations on the panel.	In
       a similar manner, the GNOME file manager (Nautilus) uses information from the desktop files to display the 'applications:///' view.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       --create-new    Creates a new .desktop file.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       filename        The name of the desktop file to be edited or viewed.

EXAMPLES

       Example 1: Editing an existing .desktop file

       example% gnome-desktop-item-edit fullpath/filename

       This command invokes the launcher dialog and loads the contents of the specified desktop file into the relevant fields.

EXIT STATUS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	Application exited successfully

       >0	Application exited with failure

FILES

       The following files are used by this application:

       /usr/bin/gnome-desktop-iExecutable for GNOME Desktop file editor

       /usr/share/applications/Desktopofile
