ARGUMENTS
The list of processes to be signaled can be a mixture of names and pids.
pid Each pid can be one of four things:
n where n is larger than 0. The process with pid n is signaled.
0 All processes in the current process group are signaled.
-1 All processes with a pid larger than 1 are signaled.
-n where n is larger than 1. All processes in process group n are signaled. When an argument of the form '-n' is given, and it is meant to denote a
process group, either a signal must be specified first, or the argument must be preceded by a '--' option, otherwise it will be taken as the signal
to send.
name All processes invoked using this name will be signaled.
