     Kills the current process, causing it to exit immediately.
 
-    On Windows, kill() uses TerminateProcess, and on Unix and Mac OS X, the
-    SIGKILL signal is sent to the process.

-    On Symbian, this function requires platform security capability
-    \c PowerMgmt. If absent, the process will panic with KERN-EXEC 46.

     \note Killing running processes from other processes will typically
     cause a panic in Symbian due to platform security.
