Alex, Thanks for your reply, I know about xkill, but i don't want to interact my GUI (Mouse) to kill any application. If i want to use Mouse then i can kill application by directly clicking on the close button. The thing is i want to kill application fully from console without any interaction. --- Alex Catullo <freelance0@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Did you try xkill? > Run it in a seperate terminal as a normal user. > > -Alex Catullo > > On 9/30/05, Ankit Patel <ankit644@xxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > I have run the "hwbrowser" from the menu.
