> Hello guys... I wonder how to kill an application (that is still running and > consuming processor percentage ) with the terminal... Ray, In Terminal, type "top" (no quotes) to get a list of the top running processes. Look for the name of the process you want to kill and make note of its PID number in the left column. Then type "q" (without quotes) to leave the top program. Now simply type "kill 123" (again without quotes), replacing the 123 with the PID you noted previously. HTH, Bill
