+\fBmysql_zap [\-\fR\fB\fIsignal\fR\fR\fB] [\-?Ift] \fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
+.SH "DESCRIPTION"
+.PP
+\fBmysql_zap\fR
+kills processes that match a pattern. It uses the
+\fBps\fR
+command and Unix signals, so it runs on Unix and Unix\-like systems.
+.PP
+Invoke
+\fBmysql_zap\fR
+like this:
+.sp
+.RS 3n
+.nf
+shell> \fBmysql_zap [\-\fR\fB\fIsignal\fR\fR\fB] [\-?Ift] \fR\fB\fIpattern\fR\fR
+.fi
+.RE
+.PP
+A process matches if its output line from the
+\fBps\fR
+command contains the pattern. By default,
+\fBmysql_zap\fR
+asks for confirmation for each process. Respond
+y
+to kill the process, or
+q
+to exit
+\fBmysql_zap\fR. For any other response,
+\fBmysql_zap\fR
+does not attempt to kill the process.
+.PP
+If the
+\fB\-\fR\fB\fIsignal\fR\fR
+option is given, it specifies the name or number of the signal to send to each process. Otherwise,
+\fBmysql_zap\fR
+tries first with
+TERM
+(signal 15) and then with
+KILL
+(signal 9).
+.PP
+\fBmysql_zap\fR
+understands the following additional options:
+.TP 3n
+\(bu
+\fB\-\-help\fR,
+\fB\-?\fR,
+\fB\-I\fR
+.sp
+Display a help message and exit.
+.TP 3n
+\(bu
+\fB\-f\fR
+.sp
+Force mode.
+\fBmysql_zap\fR
+attempts to kill each process without confirmation.
+.TP 3n
+\(bu
+\fB\-t\fR
+.sp
+Test mode. Display information about each process but do not kill it.
