runaway grep - (nf)

[lee at unm-ivax.UUCP]

 One of the questions was answered. The other's answer is:

A process name parenthesized by 'ps' means that is the name that will
be entered into system accounting.

Thus, an exec like:

execl (name, arg0, arg1, arg2, ..., 0);

would have the command 'name' stripped of path entered into system
accounting, irregardless of arg0 which a program could check and interpret
to be the name it was invoked as.
