killall5 -- send a signal to all processes.
killall5 -signalnumber
killall5 is the SystemV killall command. It sends a signal to all processes
except the processes in its own session, so it won't kill the
shell that is running the script it was called from. Its primary (only)
use is in the rc scripts found in the /etc/init.d directory.
