This has absolutely nothing to do with bash, but pkill would send a TERM
signal to all processes matching the given pattern.  If you want to have
a hunch beforehand, use "pgrep -l" with the same pattern to see what it
matches.

Your pattern should match any running process that has a lower-case o in
its name.
