2015-10-10Kill pledges to only use "stdio proc".Doug Hogan
deraadt@ notes that kill now works because of improved kernel semantics. For full kill(1) functionality, you need the new kern_sig functionality. Make sure you have an updated kernel. ok deraadt@
2015-01-16Document behavior of killing process 0, matching the text in kill(2).Todd C. Miller
From Theo Buehler
2014-10-13jmc@ found another manpage i broke when i touched inetd.David Gwynne
use kill -HUP 1 as an example of a hangup signal that does something useful and non-contrived. ok jmc@
2014-03-23kill(1) doesn't use getopt() due to its non-standard option processing.Todd C. Miller
However, POSIX (really XSI) says it should honor "--" to disambiguate between -signum and -pgid. This adds simple "--" handling such that "kill -- -pgid" is accepted.
2014-03-23note that the last two usage forms are marked xsi; ok millertJason McIntyre

2009-10-28rcsid[] and sccsid[] and copyright[] are essentially unmaintained (andTheo de Raadt
unmaintainable). these days, people use source. these id's do not provide any benefit, and do hurt the small install media (the 33,000 line diff is essentially mechanical) ok with the idea millert, ok dms
2009-02-08bump the posix reference in STANDARDS to IEEE Std 1003.1-2008, with a fewJason McIntyre
updates to follow;
2009-01-06i saw the previous was wrong as soon as i committed it: put theJason McIntyre
built-in blurb in STANDARDS; we did once have a COMPATIBILITY section which we merged with STANDARDS, so i think this is appropriate. it certainly feels better than adding single sentences randomly to the end of text bodies.

on certain shells; do not try to document changes between the implementations, but at least warn of their existence; diff from Ingo Schwarze
2007-11-01there is a reason why the argument to -l is "exit_status": as well asJason McIntyre
showing the names of signals, it may also convert the exit status of commands terminated by signals to their names. flesh out the description of -l accordingly. issue spotted by

- descriptions of examples before examples, and indent examples - direct people to sigaction(2) for complete list of signals - .Xr pkill 1 - simplify a list from jared yanovich, and some bits from me;
