{ Tasks Help - Killing Tasks }
{ XPVM supports the PVM console "kill" command for killing PVM }
{ tasks. This function is accessed by selecting the "KILL" button }
{ on the "Tasks" menu, which pops up the kill dialog box. }
{}
{ To kill a task, simply click on the desired task in the scrolling }
{ task list, and the task will be killed via pvm_kill().  Or, all of }
{ the currently executing tasks can be killed using the genocidal }
{ "Kill All" button (similar to a manual PVM Reset).  In either case, }
{ the task(s) are killed as soon as the mouse click occurs. }
{}
{ Because XPVM avoids the overhead of continuously polling PVM }
{ tasks while the kill dialog is up, the tasks listed may not }
{ completely accurately reflect the existence of all currently }
{ executing tasks. To update the task list, press the "Refresh }
{ Tasks" button. }
