stop-gtk-server(1)

📦 version 2.4.6, in alpine 3.24, nixos 26.05, nixpkgs unstable

🫶 NAME 🫶

okay so welcome to stop-gtk-server(1), straight out of the General Commands Manual, and it's basically the cleanup crew for runaway GTK-server processes 💅

stop-gtk-server — Remove GTK-server processes from the processlist. 🧹✨

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

stop-gtk-server <[-]stdin> | <[-]tcp> | <[-]udp> | <[-]fifo> | <[-]ipc>
| <[-]all> | <[-]show>

🧹 DESCRIPTION 🧹

bestie, listen — if the client program does not exit GTK properly, the GTK-server may remain in the processlist, waiting for new GTK commands. Kinda giving ghost-in-the-process-list energy 👻

With this script, the available GTK-server processes can be removed from the processlist. Cleanup era, no cap. ✨

🎀 ARGUMENTS 🎀

The command must be started with one of the following arguments:

  • [-]stdin — Remove all GTK-server processes listening to STDIN from the processlist. stdin girlies, this one's for you. 💖
  • [-]fifo — Remove all GTK-server processes listening to FIFO pipes from the processlist. Also created named pipes will be removed from disk. It’s giving pipe cleanup realness. 🎀
  • [-]tcp — Remove all GTK-server processes listening to TCP connections from the processlist. TCP bye-bye moment. 🦋
  • [-]udp — Remove all GTK-server processes listening to UDP connections from the processlist. UDP said pack it up. 🌸
  • [-]ipc — Remove all GTK-server processes listening to IPC communication channels from the processlist. Also the created message queues will be removed from memory. IPC cleanup, iconic. 💅
  • [-]all — Remove all GTK-server processes from the processlist. If there are created named pipes or created message queues then these also will be removed. Full send. The whole clean slate. 🔥
  • [-]show — Show all GTK-server processes currently in the processlist. Vibe check the processlist before you yeet anything. 👀

🌈 EXAMPLES 🌈

To remove all GTK-server processes listening to a TCP connection, run:

stop-gtk-server tcp

To remove all GTK-server processes, run:

stop-gtk-server all

that's the whole page, bestie! signing off from the General Commands Manual as stop-gtk-server(1) — the footer only gives us stop-gtk-server(1), with no extra version/date line to copy, so this is the cute end-of-page moment. byeeee 🫶💅
