16 The Process Browser

16.2 Process control

The Processes menu contains commands that let you control the execution of processes in the environment.

Choose Processes > Break to break the current process. This breaks Lisp and gives you the opportunity to follow any of the normal debugger restarts.

Choose Processes > Kill to kill the selected process.

Choose Processes > Destroy to destroy the selected process.

Choose Processes > Stop to stop the selected process. The process can be started again by choosing Processes > Unstop, and thus is similar to the use ofCtrl-Z in a UNIX session.

Choose Processes > Unstop to restart a process which has been stopped using Processes > Stop. This is similar to the use of the UNIX commandfg.
