You could take a look at XPDE - a full GUI desktop environment, window manager and many tools written with Borland Kylix 3 for use with Linux. XPDE is a clone of Win2000/WinXP (desktop and many tools and dialogs), but for Linux. It's all written in Object Pascal and is open source. I've always dreamt of one day porting all of that to fpGUI and using that as my minimal desktop environment under FreeBSD. :) Anyway, they wrote a Task Manager (looks identical to the Win2000/WinXP one), which if memory serves me well, is based on the output of the 'ps' command. I think they used a TTimer to call 'ps' continuously, then parse the output and display it via the GUI of the Task Manager application. The following URL has many screenshots and information about XPDE. In the right column, near the bottom is a screenshot of the Task Manager I mentioned. http://xpde.holobit.net/shots.php If you can't find the source code for XPDE, I still have copies of various versions.
