title: bash script does not appear in ps aux output : how to kill?
body: <p>I have done some googling on this but not come up with an answer ... frustration is setting in!</p>
  
  <p>I want to kill my bash script. This executes various other processes. I can kill any process for which I have a PID; but ps aux | grep myuserid shows up only the 'other processes', not the script itself. </p>
  
  <p>How can I kill the script? Perhaps this means 'how can I get a PID for the script?' Then I can kill it.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks, and have a great weekend (-:</p>

  <p>SOLVED!
  Well, the test ('development=true) it ran its natural course while I googled, head-scratched and consulted the combined expertise here. Now started again as a nohup job with the 'development' tag set to false. This time I CAN see it on the ps aux | grep me output. Sigh, it's been a long day.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks to all that contributed answers, comme toujours.
  Enjoy the weekend.</p>
