How i can kill process of my scriupt?

My script in /usr/bin displays the time on the console tty1 :

Quote:

if [ $(echo &>/dev/null > /dev/tty8; echo $?) -eq 0 ]
then
while [ 1 -lt 2 ]
do
clear > /dev/tty1
date +%H:%M:%S > /dev/tty1
sleep 1
done
else
echo "sudo /etc/init.d/timeconsoled start|stop"
exit 2
fi

I'm started this script : /usr/bin/showtime
How i can kill process of this script.

Isn't $$ the variable containing the PID ?

Code:

kill $(pidof -x showtime)

kill $(ps -A | grep -w showtime | grep -o '[[:digit:]]\+')  # this can be simplified, man ps

or after running the script:

Code:

/usr/bin/showtime

PID=$!

< later >

kill "$PID"

use 'kill -s 9' instead if you like, run 'man kill' or 'help kill' for more info
