                          The U:\PROC Directory


Each system process has a file entry in the 'U:\PROC' directory. The
filename given a process in this directory is the basename for the file
(without extension) with an extension consisting of the MiNT process
identifier. The MINIWIN.PRG application might have an entry named
'MINIWIN.003'.

The file size listed corresponds to the amount of memory the process is
using. The time and date stamp contains the length of time the process has
been executing as if it were started on Jan. 1st, 1980 at midnight. The
file attribute bits tell special information about a process as follows:

PROC_RUN          0x00     The process is currently running.

PROC_WAITEVENT    0x20     The process is waiting for an event.
