>Description:
ps has the options m and r to sort the output. m for sorting the output by memory and r by %cpu. 
But if m is set then r is discarded.

ps mr 

displays values sorted by memory instead of sorted by %cpu. 
m and r are mutually exclusive.
>How-To-Repeat:
ps mr shows the same like ps rm 

>Fix:
No idea, maybe m and r flags should not go in parsesort() and be defined seperately.
