Thanks, and new sorting commands are very useful. However, now `proced' displays only processes belonging to the current user, and not all processes. Could you add a filter, e.g. asking in the minibuffer to select among values "all" and "user"? Another feature I suggest is to put column names to the buffer's header line, so scrolling will keep them visible in the header line. And another small thing I suggest to rename an improper buffer name "*Process Info*" (this can be confused with the information about one particular process). Maybe a better name is "*Process List*" (this would be like "*Buffer List*"). But if this will conflict with `list-processes' with the same buffer name, then maybe a simple buffer name `*Proced*' would be more descriptive? -- Juri Linkov http://www.jurta.org/emacs/
