Currently there's a lot of useless processes in interactive mode that I would never care to close. Like all the Chrome helper processes. These makes it harder to find processes I actually want to close. With some simple heuristics I think we could hide away most of those useless processes. Should smart mode be default when using the interactive UI? What processes needs hiding? ~~Google Chrome Helper~~ (done) 2BUA8C4S2C.com.agilebits.onepassword-osx-helper zsh IssueHunt Summary Backers (Total: $40.00) issuehunt ($40.00) Submitted pull Requests #1 Group duplicate processes in interactive mode #1 Add explicit kill-all choices for duplicate processes Become a backer now!

Adds bulk entries to the interactive process search so filtered results can be killed together: show an "All matching processes" entry when a search returns multiple processes show "All processes" entries when the filtered results include duplicate process names keep the existing single-process choices unchanged document the interactive bulk choice and cover the choice generation in tests Addresses #6. Fixes #21. Tests: npm test
This adds a kill-all option for same-name processes in interactive mode. What changed: Groups same-name processes in the interactive search results. Shows a clear "Kill all N process-name processes" entry for duplicate process names. Selecting that group passes all matching PIDs through the existing kill sequence. Adds a focused AVA test for grouped process choices. This addresses the interactive kill-all use case from #21 and also helps with the same-name process grouping discussed in #6. Verification: npm test Closes #21

Closes #21 Problem When multiple processes share the same name (e.g. , ), users have to run repeatedly to kill each one individually. This was the most requested enhancement (funded \ on IssueHunt). Solution When searching in interactive mode, if 2 or more processes match the search term, a "Kill all" option appears at the top of the results list: Selecting "Kill all" kills every matching process at once. Individual process selection continues to work exactly as before. Design decisions Minimal change: Only 12 lines added to no new dependencies, no architectural changes Only appears when useful: The option only shows when there's a search term AND 2+ matches. No risk of accidentally killing everything Works with existing kill flow: Uses the same which already handles arrays of PIDs, including the force-kill fallback prompt Consistent with maintainer guidance: @sindresorhus suggested a shortcut to "kill all with the same name" this surfaces that as a first-class search result option Changes : Add "Kill all" option to search results when multiple processes match : Document the feature in help text Testing All existing tests pass () Zero new lint warnings
Macos v 10.1.3.3 ( High Sierra) There is a process running on the port 8083 ; I have checked from command and When I try to kill a process using port number than it gives following error: fkill :8083 AggregateError: Error: Killing process 64708 failed: Process doesn't exist at Array.map () at processExists.all.then.then (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/fkill-cli/node_modules/fkill/index.js:83:10) at at processExists.all.then.then (/usr/local/lib/node_modules/fkill-cli/node_modules/fkill/index.js:83:10) at at process._tickCallback (internal/process/next_tick.js:188:7)
It might be interesting to use vi-style smart case. If you include at least one uppercase letter, the search becomes case sensitive. Also implemented by : https://github.com/rauchg/spot#smart-case
