        use Proc::Killfam;
        killfam $signal, @pids;

DESCRIPTION
       killfam accepts the same arguments as the Perl builtin kill command,
       but, additionally, recursively searches the process table for children
       and kills them as well.

EXAMPLE
       killfam 'TERM', ($pid1, $pid2, @more_pids);

KEYWORDS
       kill, signal
