Research direction
Examine the existing kill function in fkill cli (likely in index.js or similar) and the process listing logic. Consider implementing a ` all` flag or an interactive 'kill all' prompt. Look at the Issuehunt bounty context and any previous comments for desired behavior. Ensure cross platform compatibility.
