37.5 Deleting Processes

Deleting a process disconnects Emacs immediately from the subprocess. Processes are deleted automatically after they terminate, but not necessarily right away. You can delete a process explicitly at any time. If you delete a terminated process explicitly before it is deleted automatically, no harm results. Deleting a running process sends a signal to terminate it (and its child processes if any), and calls the process sentinel if it has one. Voir la section Sentinels: Detecting Process Status Changes.

When a process is deleted, the process object itself continues to exist as long as other Lisp objects point to it. All the Lisp primitives that work on process objects accept deleted processes, but those that do I/O or send signals will report an error. The process mark continues to point to the same place as before, usually into a buffer where output from the process was being inserted.

User Option: delete-exited-processes

This variable controls automatic deletion of processes that have terminated (due to calling exit or to a signal). If it is nil, then they continue to exist until the user runs list-processes. Otherwise, they are deleted immediately after they exit.

Function: delete-process process

This function deletes a process, killing it with a SIGKILL signal. The argument may be a process, the name of a process, a buffer, or the name of a buffer. (A buffer or buffer-name stands for the process that get-buffer-process returns.) Calling delete-process on a running process terminates it, updates the process status, and runs the sentinel (if any) immediately. If the process has already terminated, calling delete-process has no effect on its status, or on the running of its sentinel (which will happen sooner or later).
