Die IDN!

Die IDN!

[Joel J. Adamson]

Is there some way I can automatically kill idn: it comes on when I use
org mode, then ties up my flash drive (i.e. process doesn't die when
it's done doing whatever it does).  The same thing happens with aspell
(but only when I invoke ispell).  I'm not sure which Emacs function
starts idn, although obviously ispell starts aspell.

I'm using Emacs 23.0.6 on Slackware Linux 12.0.

Thanks,
Joel

Not automatically, but at least interactively:

(defun delete-process-interactively (process)
  "Delete PROCESS.  Query interactively."
  (interactive (list
		(completing-read-multiple
		 "Delete process(es): "
		 (mapcar #'(lambda (p)
			     (cons (process-name p) nil))
			 (process-list))
		 nil t)))
  (mapc 'delete-process process))

Thanks, that's a step in the right direction.
