Hi all,

I'm trying to get parameters entered at the Cygwin command line to appear on
my ps command, and failing miserably!

i.e. I'm running the following process at the command line:

  program parameter1

In "ps -s" I get something like:

 PID  TTY    STIME COMMAND
1234  con 09:00:00 /path/program

... but I'd like to be able to pick up the "parameter1". So far as I can see
it other ps commands on Unix have an "-o args" option. I've tried every
option that seems to be available in Cygwin ps (v 1.11), but cannot get past
this wall.

Is there a way of doing this through ps (or an alternative) in Cygwin?

Thanks in anticipation
Andy Burgess
