;;	This file defines the the view-process-mode, a mode for displaying
;;	the current processes with ps on UNIX systems. There are also
;;	commands to sort and filter the output and to send signals to the
;;	processes.

;;     You can display the processes with the command `view-processes'.
;;	If you are familar with the UNIX ps command and its switches,
;;	then you can also use the command `View-process-status' or
;;	it's short cut `ps', which are asking for the command
;;	switches.  You can also run the commands on a remote system
;;	via rsh. For that you must give a prefix arg to the
;;	commands. This leads to a question for the remote host name.

;;	You need also the files: adapt.el
;;				 view-process-system-specific.el
;;				 view-process-xemacs.el
;;				 view-process-emacs-19.el
;; 
;; Installation: 
;;   
;;	Put this file and the file adapt.el 
;;     in one of your your load-path directories and
;;	the following line in your ~/.emacs (without leading ;;;):
;;	(autoload 'ps "view-process-mode"
;;	"Prints a list with processes in the buffer `View-process-buffer-name'.
;;     COMMAND-SWITCHES is a string with the command switches (ie: -aux).
;;     IF the optional argument REMOTE-HOST is given, then the command will
;;     be executed on the REMOTE-HOST. If an prefix arg is given, then the 
;;     function asks for the name of the remote host."
;;     t)
;;
;;	In the FSF Emacs 19 you should (but must not) put the following
;;	line in your ~/.emacs:
;;;	(transient-mark-mode nil)
