Yeah, I'm not actually all that sure about the configure.in patch. All I know
is that it worked for me. I don't know how other OSes will cope.
As for the two w's specificaly, when I added "etime" to the output, the `ps'
command truncated the args even more. A second w causes the complete command
arguments to be displayed. That just seemed like a good idea to me. Honestly,
I think it should probably be in all of the `ps' commands, but I'll leave
that to someone else.
Later,
Ed
