From the clipboard of tchrist@convex.COM (Tom Christiansen):
! :Yeah, nice for {,k,z,ba}sh.  Why not simply
! :
! :        ps aux | ( line; sort -rn +3 )
! 
! line: Command not found.

Why complain?  Many ps variants will not recogise "aux" either.  In fact,
most do not.  I can't think of a way to get a SVID2 ps to produce anywhere
close to what that the requester obviously wanted to sort on, i.e. %CPU
and %MEM.
