What I really miss is the ability to do "ps t\?", the way you can in SunOS.
It's a great way to find certain problem processes. (Since NetBSD understands
revoked device permissions, "ps t-" would be cool too.)
I spent about 5 minutes looking at the ps code a couple months ago. Got as
far as the options processing before I was yanked away to deal with some
stupidity or other. At this rate I'll forget how to even *spell* "C" by the
time I'm 35. :-(
