The typical command for killing something from the command line is

   kill -9 <pid>

You will need to know the program id to shut it down this way.  As you
are already using kvoicecontrol to start the programs you could have it
get the pid for each program when it does and store them in an array.
It could then run through the array shutting them down later.

Subject: [expert] How To Kill An Application From Command Line?


Is there a general rule for killing an application from the command
line?  For example, I'm using kvoicecontrol to activate programs
and I would like to tell it to shutdown the programs also.

Thanks
Seve
