% What should this 'ps' command (ps == processes) output??

well obviously the processes that are 
currently running on my machine, as
well as a process id (PID) which 
identifies each process in use, what 
else?

yeah, i tried mem /c & /d, but i'd
still be more comfortable with ps 
instead. i could also use a dos port
of the unix kill command if there is
one so i can stops jobs. since i got 
my computer, i have spent a lot of 
time stocking it with gnu utilities, 
and i practically have unix running on 
my dos box. i just need a few more 
things like ps and kill to complete the 
circle. i'm posting this to gnu.misc.discuss 
in case anyone there can help me out.
thanks.
