Hi,
Cool down. You're not going nuts.

You're talking about documentation? Did I forget to include decent
documentation? No, that can't be. :-)
As to what to use it for, well, is there anything you'd like to do with
a console app and PP? If not, don't bother with these utilities.
There already are plugins for the most common tasks one might have
previously performed with console apps (thanks Alan!).
Both sgp and mockey both posted good examples on how to use 2ppvar
without using *wait.

Well, it works for me.
It may not work if:
a) You run the command as-is from PP. This is a DOS command, to be run
from a console window or a batch file.
b) 2pp is not in your path.

Again, although I don't have pslist, it should work.
Is 2ppvar in your path?
If you really can't make it work, I'll try that on W2K later... and I
might even make a short tutorial out of it (although I'm really bad at it).
