Hum... no, the "H" flag ("ps -AlH") should display the same number of
processes than "ps -Al" *but* in a threathed format :-)
Wait... "H" do make indeed a little difference, look:
sm01@stt008:~$ ps -AlH | wc -l
133
sm01@stt008:~$ ps -Al H | wc -l
173
It's not "-H" but just "H", passed alone. There are two different
modifiers.
