>Originator: Gerhard Sittig
>Release: FreeBSD 4.2-STABLE i386
>Organization:
System Defenestrators Inc.
>Environment:
-STABLE as well as -CURRENT (their src/usr.bin/leave directories
are identical -- modulo RCS Id macros).
>Description:
The leave(1) manpage states that the program ignores several
signals while the program actually doesn't.
>How-To-Repeat:
----- `man leave` snippet ---------------------------------------
[ ... ]
Leave ignores interrupts, quits, and terminates. To get rid of it you
should either log off or use `kill -s KILL' giving its process id.
SEE ALSO
[ ... ]
----- `man leave` snippet ---------------------------------------
$ grep SIG usr.bin/leave/leave.c
$ grep signal usr.bin/leave/leave.c
$
(eyeballing the source proves the fact and simply kill(1)ing it
works perfectly with the default TERM)
>Fix:
Apply the following patch to the manpage.
