Hi, I was wondering if there's a version of 'ps' lying around somewhere that accepts arguments as the 'ps' in HP-UX/Solaris etc. I think this would be the SYSV-ps instead of the BSD-ps. Reason for this is that I still haven't found a way to do 'ps -fu user' under Debian/Linux without using a 'grep'. I think it's overkill to use a seperate grep for this.
Wouldn't it be an idea to have the choice between a BSD-ps package and a SYSV-ps package? If some-one can point me to the sources, I think I'm capable of producing a package for this. Another Q: reading the man-page for ps, I found out that you have to do a 'psupdate' everytime you recompile a new kernel. I thought it would then be logical to have this command in some rc-file, but couldn't find it anywhere under /etc. I have 0.93R5 (the base-packages anyway....). Is this implemented under R6?
