QUICKPLOT_SHELL(1)					      General Commands Manual						QUICKPLOT_SHELL(1)

NAME

       quickplot_shell - a remote command line shell for quickplot

SYNOPSIS

       Usage: quickplot_shell [PID]|[-h|--help]|[QUICKPLOT_OPTIONS]

DESCRIPTION

       Quickplot  is  an  interactive 2D plotter.  It's primary focus is to interactively display 2D plots.  quickplot_shell connects to a running
       Quickplot program.  quickplot_shell provides a command line interface for most of the graphical user interfaces that are in  the  Quickplot
       program.   quickplot_shell reads and writes to standard input and standard output respectively.	When standard input is a tty device quick-
       plot_shell enables readline tab completion and history.	If you would like to save your Quickplot shell history between sessions just  cre-
       ate a .quickplot_history in your home directory with a command like `touch ~/.quickplot_history'.

       If  the	argument option PID is not given, quickplot_shell will launch Quickplot as a new process and connect to that new process.  In this
       case Quickplot will be started with QUICKPLOT_OPTIONS if any are given.

       If PID is given, quickplot_shell will connect to a running Quickplot program with process ID PID.

       quickplot_shell sets up two named pipes, signals the running Quickplot program and writes commands and reads  responses	to  and  from  the
       pipe.  The named pipes will be unlinked as soon as they are connected, and hence will be removed automatically when the two programs are no
       longer running.

       quickplot_shell, the remote Quickplot shell, acts just like running quickplot --shell, a local Quickplot shell, but quickplot_shell runs as
       a  separate  process  and talks to the Quickplot program using pipes, where as quickplot --shell runs one process with both the GUI and the
       shell with no pipes.  You may connect as number of remote Quickplot shells to a Quickplot program.

       -h, --help
	      display help and exit

NAME

       mysql_zap - kill processes that match a pattern

SYNOPSIS

       mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern

DESCRIPTION

       mysql_zap kills processes that match a pattern. It uses the ps command and Unix signals, so it runs on Unix and Unix-like systems.

       Invoke mysql_zap like this:

	   shell> mysql_zap [-signal] [-?Ift] pattern

       A process matches if its output line from the ps command contains the pattern. By default, mysql_zap asks for confirmation for each
       process. Respond y to kill the process, or q to exit mysql_zap. For any other response, mysql_zap does not attempt to kill the process.

       If the -signal option is given, it specifies the name or number of the signal to send to each process. Otherwise, mysql_zap tries first
       with TERM (signal 15) and then with KILL (signal 9).

       mysql_zap supports the following additional options:

       o   --help, -?, -I

	   Display a help message and exit.

       o   -f

	   Force mode.	mysql_zap attempts to kill each process without confirmation.

       o   -t

	   Test mode. Display information about each process but do not kill it.
