kill

[Marcus Brinkmann]

Hi,

we don't have a kill binary in the Hurd, but we need one (for example to be
used as "sudo kill" etc), the shell builtin is not good enough.

We would like this to be part of shellutils.  My questions are, would you be
willing to include a kill utility?  Would you be willing to write one?  If
not, me or Neal can certainly provide you with a GNU clean implementation.

A simple approach is to just have a small wrapper script for the shell
builtin.  Would you prefer this over a C implementation, or the other way
round?

Thanks,
Marcus
