## kill

#### **Description**

`kill` is a command used to terminate a process. These processes are tasks that a program may be trying to complete. For each process there is a PID (process ID), which can be used with the kill command to halt the execution of specific processes.

#### **Syntax**

`kill [signal or option] PIDs`

#### **flags**
`-l` lists all available signals with no descriptions
`w` waits for all processes to finish before exiting
