SYNOPSIS

fkill [options] [target...]

DESCRIPTION

fkill is a cross-platform process killer with an interactive interface. It provides fuzzy search for selecting processes to terminate, supporting multiple selection methods.
The tool can kill processes by name, PID, or port number. In interactive mode, it displays a searchable list of running processes with resource usage information, allowing users to select targets with arrow keys and fuzzy matching.
Written in Node.js, fkill works consistently across Linux, macOS, and Windows platforms.
