Not really. The question is *not* "How do I get ps to display Windows
processes". The question is:
Does 'ps' (without -W) list only processes that have been linked to the
Cygwin dll?
Releated question:
The man page says ps will list "Cygwin processes". What is a "Cygwin
process", exactly? Is a Cygwin process an executable that's been linked
to the Cygwin dll? Does "will list" mean "will *only* list" (in the
absence of the -W option)?
Make sense?
