>Description:
ps only supports BSD options. On systems where both argument syntaxes
are available, one can select BSD-style options or SysV-style options
by omitting or including the leading option identifier (the hyphen):
	ps auxgww		(BSD-style options)
	ps -ef			(SysV-style options)
Would it be possible to update ps(1) to use both option styles?
>How-To-Repeat:

>Fix:
Eg: AIX supports the dual-flavour options.
