Hi,

I ran a command like:

while `some command` ; do something ; done &

and I missed the PID output when I backgrounded it.

Now I want to kill this while process, but I cannot find it anymore.

I tried to ps auxw | grep while, and grep do and so on, but I cannot find
the process to kill it.

How can I do that ?

thanks!
