🌸 NAME 🌸

fkill — the fabulously kill processes girlie 💅✨

---

🎀 SYNOPSIS 🎀

fkill [<pid|name> ...]

---

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

okay so. bestie. you got a process that's being a whole hater and you need it GONE. that's her. that's fkill. 💖

wanna kill a port? just slap a colon in front of it, like <italic>:8080</italic>. colon = "this is a port bestie", iykyk 🧚

run it with no arguments at all and you get the interactive interface — the little menu vibe where you pick your victim with your own two hands ✨ and inside that interface, <italic>🚦n%</italic> is telling you high CPU usage and <italic>🐏n%</italic> is telling you high memory usage. the traffic light and the ram are literally your hype squad of diagnostics 🚦🐏🔥

process names are case insensitive — capital letters, lowercase, chaos case, she does not care, she will find them 👑

---

💅 OPTIONS 💅

• -f, --force — force kill. no negotiating, no asking nicely, just force. 😤
• -v, --verbose — show process arguments. she'll tell you what she's killing and with what, fr fr 🗣️
• -f, --force — force kill. yeah she's listed twice in the real manpage and no we're not fixing it, that's just how iconic she is 💀 (matching the original, one-to-one, we don't make the rules 🫶)
• -s, --silent — silently kill and always exit with code 0. zero drama, zero output, zero problems — even the exit code stays chill 😌✨

🍓 EXAMPLES 🍓

$ fkill 1337
$ fkill safari
$ fkill :8080
$ fkill 1337 safari :8080
$ fkill

kill by pid, kill by name, kill by port, kill a whole stack of them in one line, or just vibe and open the interactive menu. the range?? unmatched 🌈

heads up bestie: these are processes we're talking about. killing the wrong one is a whole situation — stay aware, stay humble 🙈
