* Tweaks to ps(1):gjb2011-10-011-9/+16
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - there's no reason the semantics of the -x flag are being explained in the -a flag description - be more precise regarding the relation between the -a flag and the security.bsd.see_other_uids sysctl - describe the format of the -t flag's argument - 'con' no longer is a possible entry in the 'TT' column - explain that the 'TT' column refers to pseudo-terminals via mere numbers - add a hint in the 'tt' keyword description that a keyword 'tty' exists, which will give the full terminal pathname Submitted by: arundel (via docs@) (original) MFC after: 1 week With-MFC: 225908

* Support more POSIX/SUSv3 options:gad2004-03-271-6/+55
| | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | | - Change `-p' to allow a list of process IDs, and `-t' to allow a list of terminal names, instead of only a single value for each. - Add the `-A' option of SUSv3, which is exactly the same as `-ax'. - Add the `-G gidlist' (group id). - Allow any of these "selector options" to be specified multiple times, and have `ps' keep adding to a given list -- instead of replacing the previously-specified values. - Fix interactions between selector-options, so that: "If any are specified, ... ps shall select the processes represented by the inclusive OR of all the selection-criteria options." (from SUSv3) - Add a `-X' option, which is the reverse of the `-x' option. - various minor improvements in parsing and error handling. This does not get us to match POSIX/SUSv3, but it gets us closer. The `-g pgidlist', `-R ruserlist' and `-s sidlist' options mentioned in freebsd-standards are still under debate, so they skipped for now. It should be true that this introduces no user-visible incompatible changes, except to support "new stuff" that was not supported before.
