I noticed that kio_  slave processes hang around longer than I like
after the processes they do work for have terminated.

So I wrote this little snobol4 (http://www.snobol4.org) script to
delete the kio processes quickly.
============================
*	script to extract pids of kio_, etc. processes from output of ps -ax 
*	and then kill those processes

	input(.cmd,,,"|ps -ax")

	hits =   'kio_' | 'uiserver' | 'sh -c sh'

	kill = "kill -9 "
start
	line = cmd :f(eod)
	line hits :f(start)
	line pos(0) len(5) $ a1 :f(err)
	kill = kill ' ' a1 :(start)

err
	output = 'invalid input: ' line     :(end)

eod
	output = kill
	host(1,kill)

end
===============================
I don't know how much less work this would be in perl.
I expect to write more Snobol4 scripts to check security settings.
