Do we really have to provide the ability to kill some other process? Maybe we really only need one call with two arguments - one which is the exit value and one which indicates whether to exit with prejudice. cygwin_internal (CW_EXIT_PROCESS, UINT, bool); where the bool argument is true if we want to call TerminateProcess on this process. cgf
