killing off loged in users wasRe: Sending Text to Synthesizer

[Kenny Hitt <kenny@hittsjunk.net>]

Hi.  I'm sure there's more than one way to do it, but try

who

The who command will tell you all the users loged into the system.

Then use

ps aux|grep username

Substitute the user you want to kill for username.  Notice the process
id for everything running as that user and to 

kill -9 pid

Play around and see what happens.  If you take out the bash process for
the user on a specific tty, you will usually kill every other process on
that tty. 
Like I said, play around and see how it will work.  I'm probably not
explaining well, but you will see what I mean by playing.

Hope this helps.
