  :body: Sends the given signal to the specified process id(s), or to the current process if <em>pid</em> is zero. <em>signal</em> may be an integer signal number or a POSIX signal name (either with or without a <tt>SIG</tt> prefix). If <em>signal</em> is negative (or starts with a minus sign), kills process groups instead of processes. Not all signals are available on all platforms.
