Description: The /proc file system utilities.
These are utilities to browse the /proc filesystem, which is not a real file
system but a way for the kernel to provide information about the status of
entries in its process table. (e.g. running, stopped or "zombie")
Both command line and full screen utilities are provided. Ncurses is needed
for the full screen utilities.
Hope that helps,
Federico
