SYNOPSIS
       slay [-signal] name [name...]


DESCRIPTION
       Slay sends given signal (KILL by default) to all processes belonging to
       user(s) given on the command line.  When called  without  arguments  it
       displays short help.

       You  can  use  -clean  as a signal name, in that case a "clean kill" is
       done, that is processes are first sent TERM signal and after 10 seconds
       those that haven't terminated yet are killed with KILL


OPTIONS
       There are no options.


ENVIRONMENT
       SLAY_BUTTHEAD  -  setting  SLAY_BUTTHEAD to on puts slay into Butt-head
       mode (which has different messages than normal mode).   Setting  it  to
       off  puts  it into normal mode. This environment variable overrides the
       setting from /etc/slay_mode


FILES
       /etc/slay_mode - contains keywords describing the mode slay  works  in,
       separated by newlines:

       mean  turns  mean mode on. In mean mode attempts to slay people without
       root priviledges are punished. This is the default.

       nice turns mean mode off.

       butthead switched slay to Butt-head messages mode.

       normal switches slay to normal messages mode. This is the default.

       You can only use one of mean/nice keywords and one  of  butthead/normal
       keywords.


BUGS
       Unknown.  If  there  are any report them to author and/or package main-
       tainer.
