All your script would do is print out a Kill message. It will not
execute the Kill command. In fact, I am not aware of a "Kill"
command. If you're on Windows, you must have some sort of unix-like
toolkit involved and then you'd probably still need the "kill" command
- note no capitalization. On Unix things are case-sensitive so you
have to use the "kill" command. It also has to be in your path (it
normally is by default).

Perhaps you're looking for something like:

$force = "-9&quot;;
`kill $force $pid[$_]`;

If that's not what you want, post more information such as the OS,
what you're trying to accomplish, and what _exactly_ seems to be the
problem (error messages, observed behavior, output from "use strict&quot;
or "-w&quot;, etc.
