I found that one problem that I run into is if the shell I am running actually spans another process then even if I kill the shell the call keeps running.

I usually kill a thread with close and then send the shell a "kill " + oldShell.pid and if there are spawned processes I use the kill pid# method on them as well

How do I kill a shell command that is running?

I tried calling .close and nilling it, but that made no difference. The process still ran for 30 more seconds till completion!
