We can also find the PID of the program by using a command called pgrep. The name pgrep stands for Process Grep. The -f option lets us specify the complete command, including its options, so that we get the correct PID:$> pgrep -f "sleep 300"

4822

Now that we know the PID, we can kill the program using kill:$> kill 4822

$> Enter

[1]+ Terminated sleep 300
