minus-squareTrumpetXlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·4 days agoI use awk instead of cut cause I can remember the syntax better. ps aux | grep zoom | grep -v grep | awk ‘{print $2}’ | xargs kill -9
minus-squarestewie410linkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 days agoYou can get rid of those greps, btw: ps aux | awk '/zoom/ && $0 !~ /awk/ {print $2}' Or just use pgrep.
minus-squareVictor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up2·4 days agoThe greps were much more legible that this concoction 😅 But I second the use of pgrep. 👌 Better yet, just killall zoom.
minus-squareVictor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·4 days agoMay I interest you in the command killall? 😁
minus-squareTrumpetXlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up1·3 days agoThe thing with killall is I can’t see what it’s going to do first. With the greps, I can look first, kill second.
minus-squareVictor@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 days agoTrue, then I would personally run pgrep first, then killall. 😊
