I was reading the kill man page today looking for some information for a script I am writing. The man page mentioned that some shells have a kill built-in command. On further investigation, I noticed that bash has this as a built-in.
My questions are: * should I explicitly call /bin/kill? * is there any advantage to avoiding the built-in? * why the different implementations? Incidentally, the script is a bash script. -Roberto -- Roberto C. Sanchez http://familiasanchez.net/~sanchezr
