Thanks for the clearance, but this behaviour is very ... unexpected.
ps ax | grep 0:00 xyz
is clear that the second parameter is meant to be interpreted as
filename, otherwise it should read
ps ax | grep '0:00 xyz'
But I was not expecting "." instead of "-" when option -r is in use.
Maybe this could be added in the man page.
Kind regards,
