RRmmmmoodd unloads loadable modules from the running kernel.
RRmmmmoodd tries to unload a set of modules from the kernel,
with the restriction that they are not in use and that
they are not referred to by other modules.
If more than one module is named on the command line, the
modules will be removed simultansously. This supports
unloading of stacked modules.

minal.
