Tor stays at background after closing the terminal. How can I make it behave like in Windows (Tor only functions while the cmd is still running). I'm using Tor by just entering tor command in terminal -> firefox proxy settings (without tor browser).

I've specified RunAsDaemon 0 in torrc but it seems to have no effect.

Here's the Linux way to do it:

In a terminal, use "sudo service tor stop." If that doesn't work, try going to System Monitor and ending the process from there. If THAT doesn't work, go to your terminal and type in "sudo killall tor". That should make Tor go away.
