Browser, I always love and respect your comments, as well as the guidance that you provide. However, there are cases where data need not be displayed in the process table. Let us take a simple usermod example to illustrate the point. Would one really want to display in the process table?

Linux:
  /usr/sbin/usermod -p <value> account
HP-UX:
  /usr/sam/lbin/usermod.sam -p <value> account

The point is that there are cases where one is just better off not displaying every command argument in the process table regardless of device ownership.
