# HOW TO EDIT THIS FILE: # The "handy ruler" below makes it easier to edit a package description. # Line up the first '|' above the ':' following the base package name, and # the '|' on the right side marks the last column you can put a character in. # You must make exactly 11 lines for the formatting to be correct. It's also # customary to leave one space after the ':' except on otherwise blank lines. |-----handy-ruler------------------------------------------------------| perl-Proc-ProcessTable: perl-Proc-ProcessTable (Perl extension to access the process table) perl-Proc-ProcessTable: perl-Proc-ProcessTable: This module is a first crack at providing a consistent interface to perl-Proc-ProcessTable: Unix (and maybe other multitasking OS's) process table information. perl-Proc-ProcessTable: perl-Proc-ProcessTable: This is mainly for other Perl programs, but there is also a command perl-Proc-ProcessTable: line tool pswait which takes a list of process IDs or names and then perl-Proc-ProcessTable: waits for one or all of them to end. This is useful for scripts perl-Proc-ProcessTable: dealing with process pools or concurrent pipelines. perl-Proc-ProcessTable: perl-Proc-ProcessTable:
