What's a PIN?

 Hello,

I've been working with creating processes and GETPROCINFO which work
with 32 bit PIN's.  I understand a PIN to be a bit like a process ID
(pid) on UNIX.

But then I looked at PROCINFO.  That has a 16 bit PIN which is
documented as not being compatible with GETPROCINFO PIN's.

So are there two PIN numbers for a process?

Cheers

Peter
