Me working with the OS
(lemmy.world)
Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
There are rust libraries to send signals, might be better to use those rather than calling bash. eg. https://docs.rs/nix/latest/nix/sys/signal/index.html
I'm guessing if input was "", then it would sigkill all processes? Less confident, but some functions behave slightly differently in an interactive console vs a non interactive, maybe
ps
has a different format when used non interactively?thx, btw I figured it out:
I forgot to trimm the string, so it had a line break in it which lead to grep showing the processes from the term I put in + all processes that contain a space/linebreak and appearently all processes shown by ps aux contain some kind of space (makes sense, since there are spaces between the user, pid, etc) so yeah, I ended up trying to kill every process on the system, but it only killed the user processes, since I ran everything without sudo
