[Coco] break command in OS9/NitrOS9

To expand on my previous email.....

My thoughts on that would be to have a command with the following template:

break <process number> <break code>

then if I type:

break 10 1

It would send a kill to process 10, or alternatively,

break 10 3

would send a break char to process 10

  Hi all,

  is there a command in OS9 to send a break character ($03) to a process? 

  I thought there was a command called "break", but I don't see it right now.
