Message-ID: <1991Jun13.233333.9803@fithp> Date: 13 Jun 91 23:33:33 GMT Distribution: usa Organization: Weinstein Consulting Lines: 13 I think I remember seeing subjects in netnews concerning ps bugs, but, silly me, I ignored them. I've observed that, when an executable has a 14-character name, ps apparently doesn't know when to stop and so tacks garbage onto the end of the program name. Does anyone know of a fix or patch for this? -- Marc Weinstein {simon,royko,tellab5}!linac!fithp!mhw Elmhurst, IL -or- {internet host}!linac.fnal.gov!fithp!mhw
