Good point, I have to find out how to kill them, but it's a priority.

I can't seem to reproduce this, any particular way you recommend?

I just tried a daily build of luna, and than I've taken a look at the system monitor.

Unable to re-produce. OP, can you test to make sure this is still happening with the latest from trunk?

not only bash keeps on running but any running command does not exit.
I tried close_pid for both but somehow it doesn't work.
