What are the various 'kill' command arguments?
There is a nice discussion of this in 'man 5 signal.' Some of the different kills in order of increasing power:
      kill -15  SIGTERM   Exit    Terminated
      kill -1   SIGHUP    Exit    Hangup
      kill -2   SIGINT    Exit    Interrupt
      kill -3   SIGQUIT   Core    Quit
      kill -9   SIGKILL   Exit    Killed
