If 0 is given as first parameter, the bkill command ignores other options and terminates ALL jobs of the user. advise a warning if the command "bkill 0 -q gui" is used instead of the correct command "bkill -q gui 0". If tried to run, bjobs <jobid> -u <user>. The error "-u: Illegal job ID" displays. Something of this stature could be very helpful for users who do not intend to kill all their jobs.

Would it also be possible to provide documentation on what happens if the parameters are used wrong when using using "jobid 0"? Thank you.
