A naive solution would be to parse the output of ps. I'm not sure if the
ps output and flags are portable across these three platforms, but it's
probably the most portable solution I can think of.
AFAIK, ps uses the proc filesystem to gather information, at least on
Linux. So you might be able to use that.
I suggest you take a look at the source of the procps utilities. That of
course is assuming they are not Linux specific.
