Beschreibung

Typical use case is starting a process with multiple sub-processes and then wanting to killing them all:

const child = require('child_process').exec("node -e 'while (true);'");
child.kill(); // will not work

It's been implemented for Windows in https://github.com/sindresorhus/fkill/pull/20, would be nice to have this functionality cross-platform.

There is a $40.00 open bounty on this issue. Add more on Issuehunt.
