@musically-ut pkill -P
does not kill the TERM, but I think that it killed the forked processes. Let me know, because I might need to change that in my scripts too 😄
@harrymvr The PPID of the processes put in background seems to be 1
, i.e. the init
process:
I am not too keen on running pkill -P 1
. <_<
hmmm interesting. Yeah, I would pass on that as well 😆

@harrymvr Thanks for the
set -e
idea, I've included it in the script. I didn't know aboutpkill -P
trick, but won't it kill the shell itself?
