- NOTES
- As an alpha release the are some important aspects unfinished, for example memory allocation... Some misalignment or strange page format is due to the non-uniform style of the different /proc sections, what's not in my hands. My sins are bigger but others. This little program is based on Linux design of /proc so in principle it is not portable to different platforms. And more, it is linked to the 2.2.X kernels; the 2.4.X have a different layout.
Comments and bug-reports are welcome, really.
