I tmux my vim session so I never have to exit it, I just end the session and NOTHING OF NOTE HAPPENS

Just all those left over swap files I forget about because they are in every one of my dot ignore files.

What if SIGTERM not enough? Kill nine times. Like this: killall -9 vim. Congratulations, comrade, you have passed KGB exam.

Yes, one of them literally have name cat, so you can kill all the cats with killall -9 cat
