Fellow Listers,

I've been following the latest thread about PINs and PIDs and while trying
the suggested solutions I stumbled upon the following:


shell/iX> date
Tue Oct  7 13:30:46 PDT 1997
shell/iX> ps -e
ps: not found
shell/iX>
shell/iX> /SYS/HPBIN/PS
       PID TTY      TIME COMMAND
   8257668 ldev9    0:00 PS.HPBIN.SYS
   5439653 ldev9    0:00 SH.HPBIN.SYS info=-L
   6684911 ldev9    0:00 JSMAIN.PUB.SYS
   6488487 ldev9    0:06 CI.PUB.SYS
shell/iX>

Any Ideas why 'ps -e' did not work?  The current aliases are:

shell/iX> alias
stop="kill -STOP"
listgroup="callci listgroup"
df="callci discfree d"
nohup="nohup "
integer="typeset -i"
history="fc -l"
h="fc -l"
functions="typeset -f"
listuser="callci listuser"
copy="callci copy"
listf="callci listfile"
suspend="stop \$\$"
r="fc -s"
hash="alias -t"
shell/iX>

Regards
