- one thing that I have found is that in the sources that I obtained for PS
- (ps-0.98.4?) was that in the Makefile there two lines
- CFLAGS= -O -DVERSION_CHECK
- CFLAGS= -O
-
- when making, I simply changed it to
- CFLAGS= -O -DVERSION_CHECK
- #CFLAGS= -O
- that was all I had to do to get ps, w, tload to work(ish) though i'm not happy
- with the output from 'w' as it puts some processes in ()'s
-
- top broke on this but I wasn't fussed about it as my usage of it is approx 0
-
- it isn't perfact but until (dave black?) or whoever releases a new version
- specifically for 0.99 we'll all be making alternitive perl/c ps commands
