+.SH NAME
+qsig \- signal batch jobs
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.LP
+\fBqsig\fP \fB[\fP\fB-s\fP \fIsignal\fP\fB]\fP \fIjob_identifier\fP
+\fB\&... \fP
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+To signal a batch job is to send a signal to the session leader of
+the batch job. A batch job is signaled by sending a request
+to the batch server that manages the batch job. The \fIqsig\fP utility
+is a user-accessible batch client that requests the
+signaling of a batch job.
+.LP
+The \fIqsig\fP utility shall signal those batch jobs for which a batch
+\fIjob_identifier\fP is presented to the utility. The
+\fIqsig\fP utility shall not signal any batch jobs whose batch \fIjob_identifier\fPs
+are not presented to the utility.
+.LP
+The \fIqsig\fP utility shall signal batch jobs in the order in which
+the corresponding batch \fIjob_identifier\fPs are
+presented to the utility. If the \fIqsig\fP utility fails to process
+a batch \fIjob_identifier\fP successfully, the utility shall
+proceed to process the remaining batch \fIjob_identifier\fPs, if any.
+.LP
+The \fIqsig\fP utility shall signal batch jobs by sending a \fISignal
+Job Request\fP to the batch server that manages the
+batch job.
+.LP
+For each successfully processed batch \fIjob_identifier\fP, the \fIqsig\fP
+utility shall have received a completion reply to
+each \fISignal Job Request\fP sent to a batch server at the time the
+utility exits.
+.SH OPTIONS
+.LP
+The \fIqsig\fP utility shall conform to the Base Definitions volume
+of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 12.2, Utility Syntax Guidelines.
+.LP
+The following option shall be supported by the implementation:
+.TP 7
+\fB-s\ \fP \fIsignal\fP
+Define the signal to be sent to the batch job. 
+.LP
+The \fIqsig\fP utility shall accept a \fIsignal\fP option-argument
+that is either a symbolic signal name or an unsigned
+integer signal number (see the POSIX.1-1990 standard, Section 3.3.1.1).
+The \fIqsig\fP utility shall accept signal names for which
+the SIG prefix has been omitted.
+.LP
+If the \fIsignal\fP option-argument is a signal name, the \fIqsig\fP
+utility shall send that name.
+.LP
+If the \fIsignal\fP option-argument is a number, the \fIqsig\fP utility
+shall send the signal value represented by the
+number.
+.LP
+If the \fB-s\fP option is not presented to the \fIqsig\fP utility,
+the utility shall send the signal SIGTERM to each signaled
+batch job.
+.sp
+.SH OPERANDS
+.LP
+The \fIqsig\fP utility shall accept one or more operands that conform
+to the syntax for a batch \fIjob_identifier\fP (see \fIBatch Job Identifier\fP
+).
+.SH STDIN
+.LP
+Not used.
+.SH INPUT FILES
+.LP
+None.
+.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
+.LP
+The following environment variables shall affect the execution of
+\fIqsig\fP:
+.TP 7
+\fILANG\fP
+Provide a default value for the internationalization variables that
+are unset or null. (See the Base Definitions volume of
+IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 8.2, Internationalization Variables
+for
+the precedence of internationalization variables used to determine
+the values of locale categories.)
+.TP 7
+\fILC_ALL\fP
+If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the
+other internationalization variables.
+.TP 7
+\fILC_CTYPE\fP
+Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes
+of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as
+opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments).
+.TP 7
+\fILC_MESSAGES\fP
+Determine the locale that should be used to affect the format and
+contents of diagnostic messages written to standard
+error.
+.TP 7
+\fILOGNAME\fP
+Determine the login name of the user.
+.sp
+.SH ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS
+.LP
+Default.
+.SH STDOUT
+.LP
+An implementation of the \fIqsig\fP utility may write informative
+messages to standard output.
+.SH STDERR
+.LP
+The standard error shall be used only for diagnostic messages.
+.SH OUTPUT FILES
+.LP
+None.
+.SH EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+None.
+.SH EXIT STATUS
+.LP
+The following exit values shall be returned:
+.TP 7
+\ 0
+Successful completion.
+.TP 7
+>0
+An error occurred.
+.sp
+.SH CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS
+.LP
+In addition to the default behavior, the \fIqsig\fP utility shall
+not be required to write a diagnostic message to standard
+error when the error reply received from a batch server indicates
+that the batch \fIjob_identifier\fP does not exist on the
+server. Whether or not the \fIqsig\fP utility waits to output the
+diagnostic message while attempting to locate the batch job on
+other servers is implementation-defined.
+.LP
+\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
+.SH APPLICATION USAGE
+.LP
+None.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.LP
+None.
+.SH RATIONALE
+.LP
+The \fIqsig\fP utility allows users to signal batch jobs.
+.LP
+A user may be unable to signal a batch job with the \fIkill\fP utility
+of the operating
+system for a number of reasons. First, the process ID of the batch
+job may be unknown to the user. Second, the processes of the
+batch job may be on a remote node. However, by virtue of communication
+between batch nodes, the \fIqsig\fP utility can arrange for
+the signaling of a process.
+.LP
+Because a batch job that is not running cannot be signaled, and because
+the signal may not terminate the batch job, the
+\fIqsig\fP utility is not a substitute for the \fIqdel\fP utility.
+.LP
+The options of the \fIqsig\fP utility allow the user to specify the
+signal that is to be sent to the batch job.
+.LP
+The \fB-s\fP option allows users to specify a signal by name or by
+number, and thus override the default signal. The
+POSIX.1-1990 standard defines signals by both name and number.
+.LP
+The \fIqsig\fP utility is a new utility, \fIvis-a-vis\fP existing
+practice; it has been defined in this volume of
+IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001 in response to user-perceived shortcomings
+in existing practice.
+.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS
+.LP
+None.
