+.SH SYNOPSIS

+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.B killjail
+can either send signals to a
+.BR jailer (8)
+process to manage the shutdown or restart of a jail or it can kill all
+the processes in a jail on it's own.
+
+When no options are given the jail is shutdown as follows:
+.IP 1. 3
+A stop request (SIGTERM) is sent to the
+.BR jailer (8)
+process for the jail if there is one. This initiates an orderly shutdown.
+.IP 2. 3
+Any remaining processes are killed with a SIGTERM.
+.IP 3. 3
+If the
+.B -f
+option is specified, send a SIGKILL to any remaining processes.
+
+.SH OPTIONS
+.IP -f
+Force jail to shutdown sending a SIGKILL as a last resort.
+.IP -h
+Sends a halt request to a jail (SIGQUIT). The jail must have a
+.BR jailer (8)
+process running inside it. The
+.BR jailer (8)
+process remains running within the jail, but all other jailed
+processes are shutdown in and orderly fashion.
+.IP -q
+Supress warnings.
+.IP -r
+Sends a restart request to a jail (SIGHUP). The jail must have a
+.BR jailer (8)
+process running inside it.
+.IP "-t timeout"
+The timeout in seconds to wait between steps 1, 2 and 3 above. Defaults to 3.

+.SH BUGS
+I'm sure they're out there. Let me know.
