Ok, how do you kill a ksh shell script on the unix-pc? I try: kill %1 (job one is a shell script) Nothing happens. Kill -9 will work, but its a bit extreame. How do you get scripts (as opposed to interactive shells) to pay attention to SIGTERM? Michael -- Michael denwa!stb!michael anes.ucla.edu!stb!michael "The 80's: Ten years that came in a row."
