If skill was used with a signal number then it would intepret the command line with last option interpreted twice. This often confused the program so it just would end up killing nothing. So this would work: skill -t pts/0 This would not: skill -9 -t pts/0 The kill path (in the same file) uses the same logic that has been introduced here.
