NAME

    Unix::Process Perl extension to get pid info from (/bin/ps).

SYNOPSIS

  use Unix::Process;

    my $vsz = Unix::Process->vsz($$);
    my $pid = Unix::Process->pid;

DESCRIPTION

    All fields from the ps command can be fetched by calling a
    function of their name (see SYNOPSIS).  If the pid is not
    given as an argument to the function, $$ (cur pid) is assumed.

    BTW, this module is really just a giant AUTOLOAD to interact
    with the /bin/ps command.  I suppose I could be talked into
    doing something real with it some day.

   Actually, let him know if you find it handy at all.
   Half the fun of releasing this stuff is knowing 
   that people use it.
