PROCS lists all processes running in OS/2 2.0. It works with OS/2 2.0 and is a 32-bit app.

It uses the undocumented API DosQProcStatus to get a list of running processes - therefore its stability is in question because IBM could change or remove this API without telling anyone. But this API stayed the same from 1.1 to 1.3 so I would doubt that the 2.0 version will change in any 2.x release.

Usage:

PROCS StartingPoint [ /f /s ]

Processes are sorted in Process Name, then Process ID order.

Starting point is a string that indicates a process-name or partial process-name from which to start listing processes.

  • /f fully qualifies the process names.
  • /s suppresses the 'More[Y/N]' messages that occur when the screen is about to overflow. This is useful if redirecting to a file.
