% 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?

% When you like to have a TSR's list, use mem/c or mem/d.

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.

Geez, if you want unix, why not run linux?

Dos sucks.
