AFNI program: @Quiet_Talkers
Output of -help
A script to find and kill AFNI processes
ps is used to lookfor processes running certain AFNI programs
(default list: afni 3dGroupInCorr plugout_drive suma DriveSuma 3dSkullStrip SurfSmooth)
with certain command line options
@Quiet_Talkers [-sudo] [-prog PROG]
[-npb_val NV] [-npb_range NV0 NV1]
[-pif KEY_STRING] [-no_npb]
[-list] [-quiet]
OPTIONS
-sudo: Invoke higher powers to kill processes that you do not own
-prog PROG: Instead of the default program list, only kill PROG
You can use multiple -prog options
-npb_val NV: Kill those programs using NIML port block NV
-npb_range NV0 NV1: Kill those using NIML port blocks between
NV0 and NV1
-pif KEY_STRING: Kill those programs that have a string matching
KEY_STRING in their commandline.
Most AFNI programs allow for a -pif KEY_STRING
option that does nothing but serve a process
identification purpose
-no_npb: Kill any program in the list regardless of -npb options
or -pif
-list: Just list process numbers, don't run kill command
-quiet: Do it quietly
Global Help Options:
--------------------
-h_web: Open webpage with help for this program
-hweb: Same as -h_web
-h_view: Open -help output in a GUI editor
-hview: Same as -hview
-all_opts: List all of the options for this script
-h_find WORD: Search for lines containing WORD in -help

Examples:
To kill all programs in list that used the -npb option
@Quiet_Talkers
To kill all those with either -npb 3 or 6
@Quiet_Talkers -npb_val 3 -npb_val 6
To kill all those with -npb values in the range 5..9
@Quiet_Talkers -npb_range 5 9
To restrict the search to certain programs only:
@Quiet_Talkers -prog suma -prog afni -npb_range 5 9
General purpose destruction:
You can also kill process that have a certain string in the
command line. Usually such commands are flagged with the
hidden AFNI option -pif.
Example:
suma -pif SOME_KEY_STRING &
@Quiet_Talkers -prog suma -pif SOME_KEY_STRING
Note that with -pif, the npb options are disabled.
Say you want to kill any 'afni'
@Quiet_Talkers -prog afni -pif ' '
or
@Quiet_Talkers -prog afni -no_npb
