Hey Klaus,
The improvement looks nice and useful, but I think you should retain
somehow the openser name in the process list instead of only printing
something like fifo or udp 0
Else it can get confusing (what if some other process decides to name
itself fifo?)
Maybe just append the extra description after the original string, so
it'll look something like:
5 S root 14133 1 /usr/sbin/openser
1 S root 14134 14133 /usr/sbin/openser fifo
1 S root 14135 14133 /usr/sbin/openser udp 0
...
or if you want:
5 S root 14133 1 /usr/sbin/openser
1 S root 14134 14133 openser fifo
1 S root 14135 14133 openser udp 0
...
(however this second version as well as the original will be confusing if
you run 2 instances of openser on the same machine from 2 different
directories - /usr and /usr/local for example)
