Hm.. On my 2.1R system. there isn't any -U options (and it's missing, too because I liked SysV's ``ps -fu'' syntax). Well, -f is missing (OK, I've sent a little patch, but I don't know is it in the new source), but can do with -[oO]. But the -u (-U) is a very need. -- Gabor Zahemszky -:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:-:- Earth is the cradle of human sense, but you can't stay in the cradle forever.
