Am I correct in stating that the only processes that ps will list are
processes that are linked to cygwin.dll?

The question is *not* "How do I get ps to display Windows processes". The question is: Does 'ps' (without -W) list only processes that have been linked to the Cygwin dll? Releated question: The man page says ps will list "Cygwin processes". What is a "Cygwin process", exactly? Is a Cygwin process an executable that's been linked to the Cygwin dll? Does "will list" mean "will *only* list" (in the absence of the -W option)? Make sense? -- Ryan T.
