Andrew Svetlov <andrew.svet...@gmail.com> added the comment: There are no `kill` function in Windows API. >From my perspective win32_kill was added to emulate posix sibling if possible. >If not — better to give another Windows native name to that function. Really don't see good solution. Maybe better what we can do — declare what os.kill cannot be called with 0 signum on Windows for proc presence checking and note that fact in os.rst. Terminating process looks like overcomplication. POSIX kill only sends signal to process and nothing more.
