ETask V1.00 / (2/6/92) by Ezra Story
ETask may be distributed for non-profit only. ETask is freeware.
ETask
ETask is a simple program that monitors the tasks running (or wait-
ing) in your system, and allows you to change their priority. Its
about as simple as you can get.
ETask lists the task name, priority, stack size, process name (if it
has one) and whether the task is running or waiting on a signal. If
you supply a task name and priority, ETask will change the task's
priority to the specified number without listing the tasks.
To list all the Tasks present on your system:
ETask [return]
To change a Task's (or process') priority:
ETask taskname priority
If you can't remember:
ETask ?
If you prefer two different commands for listing tasks and changing
priority, just add alias commands to your shell-startup file. I
personally have etask aliased to "procs" and "setpr" to simulate the
equivalent OS/9 commands.
