PROCP(VI)  −  PWB/UNIX 8/27/77

NAME

procp − print information about a process

SYNOPSIS

procp [ pid ]

DESCRIPTION

Procp is a program which prints out the system information about a process.  The argument process id is used, or if none is given, procp prints out information about itself.  Thus a procp of a pascal translation with pi running in the background might give the following output:

PID = 11998
stat nice   sig  uid  gid  pgrp  ppid  wchan clock
   3    0     0    7    0 10237 10771      0     0
ruid rgid         direct  inode    tty   dev   cdir
   7    0        error.i   7295    0/2   1/65  7282
     files           inodes
num type count count dev  inum  uid  gid
  0  R       1    1 65/1   557    7    0
  1  RW     13    1  8/5   291    0    0
  2  RW     13    1  8/5   291    0    0
  3   W      1    1 65/1  8795    7    0
  4  R       1    1 64/1   548    7    0
  5  R       1    1 65/1  7295    7    0
signals
  2     1 ignored
  3     1 ignored

Here the first line gives the process number, the second and third lines information from the process table entry, the fourth and fifth lines information from the "u dot." These are followed by information about each file which the process has open, and finally a listing of signals which have other than their default actions.
