Looks like that could be avoided by referring to use of "kill -l" for
signal names & numbers; the ksh manual implies that that is a POSIX-
standard option for that purpose, and it's supported by tcsh's built-
in "kill".
P.S. If anyone cares more than I do, the tcsh manual refers to
the first of these as two "forms" and the second as one "form".
kill [-s signal] %job|pid ...
migrate [-site] pid|%jobid ... (+)
which, in context, had me wasting time trying to determine which form
was being referred to in the description.
