Pd can't handle going over the limit!
In theory you could just read /proc/$$/stat using [textfile] and bang it
to get its only line and pick up $23 from that list, but in practice, even
with the cr option, I can't make [textfile] output a line of it, and I
don't know anything that can tell you "$$" in pd, which is the process id
that you see when you use the "ps" command in Linux/Bash.
Replacing $23 by something else would get you other interesting info, from
the same set that "ps" can tell you about, perhaps a bit more.
