Well, in general, you wouldn't write ‘kill’ to /tag/sel/ctl, because it
wouldn't do anything but report an error. Er, just read the subject,
though, in which case:
1) What rc are you using?
2) Try wmiir read /event from the commandline and see if your key
presses are reported.
It's possible that your rc is catching some signal from whatever client
was killed, but I really couldn't say without more specifics.
