     STOP(1)                                                   STOP(1)

     NAME
          stop, start - print commands to stop and start processes

     SYNOPSIS
          stop name

          start name

     DESCRIPTION
          Stop prints commands that will cause all processes called
          name and owned by the current user to be stopped.  The pro-
          cesses can then be debugged when they are in a consistent
          state.

          Start prints commands that will cause all stopped processes
          called name and owned by the current user to be started
          again.

          Use the send command of 8½(1), or pipe into rc(1) to execute
          the commands.
