killall(1)

I think this command needs to support a -Q switch that does the following:

- Outputs nothing if no processes were killed (like -q)
- Returns exit code 0 if no processes were killed (unlike -q)

Good with you all?

Well, I need it to return non-zero *only if* if there was a problem killing it (ignoring SIGTERM, etc.), *not* if it just couldn't find anything to kill.
