Command line and full screen utilities for browsing procfs, a "pseudo" file system dynamically generated by Linux to provide information about the status of entries in its process table.

Normally, the internally tracked 'Screen_cols' can not exceed the lessor of 512 or actual screen width. There was one case, however, where that 512 byte upper limit was no longer properly imposed as it should have been. When operating in 'Batch' mode the actual screen width was allowed to be exceeded when the optional -w switch was also used. But, it should never have exceeded 512. This patch ensures the upper limit is always observed. Reference(s): http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=721204 Signed-off-by: Jim Warner <james.warner@comcast.net> |

COMPATIBILITY This code is intended for use with Linux 2.6.xx, 3.x and hopefully all future kernels. INSTALLATION If you are using git version of the project you need extra step. ./autogen.sh After that, and everyone using .tar.xz version of procps-ng, can do normal build. Read './configure --help' to select options for your needs. ./configure make make install If you have DejaGNU installed you can run optional test suite. make check HOW TO CONTRIBUTE See Documentation/BUGS file. PACKAGING If you are a downstream maintainer (packager) for a Linux distribution, please avoid causing troubles. This section applies to you. Avoid maintaining distribution specific patches. Send your patches to upstream, where they are at least reviewed, if not included. Please forward bug reports. If your bug database is public and busy enough to bother with, please make this known. Follow Debian's lead in making the bug database easy to comment on via email without need for an account. For normal packages, ensure that you do not add debugging flags to the CFLAGS variable.
