20 With no arguments, lastcomm prints information about all the commands
21 recorded during the current accounting file's lifetime. If called with
22 arguments, only accounting entries with a matching command name, user
23 name, or terminal name are printed. So, for example,
24
25 lastcomm a.out root ttyd0
26
27 would produce a listing of all the executions of commands named a.out
28 by user root on the terminal ttyd0.
29
30 For each process entry, the following are printed.
31
32 The name of the user who ran the process.
33 Flags, as accumulated by the accounting facilities in the system.
34 The command name under which the process was called.
35 The amount of cpu time used by the process (in seconds).
36 The time the process exited.
37
38 The flags are encoded as follows: ``S'' indicates the command was exe‐
39 cuted by the super-user, ``F'' indicates the command ran after a fork,
40 but without a following exec, ``C'' indicates the command was run in
41 PDP-11 compatibility mode (VAX only), ``D'' indicates the command ter‐
42 minated with the generation of a core file, and ``X'' indicates the
43 command was terminated with a signal.
