6 Unix::Process - Perl extension to get pid info from (/usr/bin/ps).
7
9 use Unix::Process;
10
11 my $vsz = Unix::Process->vsz($$);
12 my $pid = Unix::Process->pid;
13
15 All fields from the ps command can be fetched by calling a function of
16 their name (see SYNOPSIS). If the pid is not given as an argument to
17 the function, $$ (cur pid) is assumed.

19 This module is really just a giant AUTOLOAD to interact with the
20 /usr/bin/ps command. I suppose I could be talked into doing something
21 real with it some day.

23 You can manually set the "$Unix::Process::PS_PROGRAM = "/opt/bin/ps""
24 by hand, or you can set "$ENV{PS_PATH} = "/usr/local/bin/ps"", but you
25 must somehow instruct Unix::Process on the location of ps. Otherwise,
26 it will guess "/usr/bin/ps".

31 I am using this software in my own projects... If you find bugs,
32 please please please let me know. :) Actually, let me know if you find
33 it handy at all. Half the fun of releasing this stuff is knowing that
34 people use it.
