This commit introduces support for special %PPID value that can be passed to the -o option as a substitution for parent PID. It also allows users to use two additional separators for omitted PIDs - colon and semicolon.

.SH DESCRIPTION
|
|
.B Pidof
|
|
finds the process id's (pids) of the named programs. It prints those
|
|
id's on the standard output.
|
|
.SH OPTIONS
|
|
.IP \-s
|
|
Single shot - this instructs the program to only return one \fIpid\fP.
|
|
.IP \-c
|
|
Only return process ids that are running with the same root directory.
|
|
This option is ignored for non-root users, as they will be unable to check
|
|
the current root directory of processes they do not own.
|
|
.IP \-x
|
|
Scripts too - this causes the program to also return process id's of
|
|
shells running the named scripts.
|
|
.IP "-o \fIomitpid\fP"
|
|
Tells \fIpidof\fP to omit processes with that process id. The special
|
|
pid \fB%PPID\fP can be used to name the parent process of the \fIpidof\fP
|
|
program, in other words the calling shell or shell script.
|
|
