There is an undocumented System  Call which is used with pstat in 1.2,
it is names DosQProcStatus(). Some time ago I have posted an article
about this here. If you are interested, I could send it to you. Also, I
have submitted a program, MAP, to comp.binaries.os2 (which was not yet
posted by the moderatore) which shows processes, shmem, semaphores etc.
and uses this call.
