Hello, Given an evil hacker trying to confuse process monitors that might use such strange process names as 'pause) R 0 0 (foo' how can I correctly parse the command name from /proc/<pid>/stat? Maybe I should just use /proc/<pid>/status? Maybe there should be some documentation written on the issue? I just wanted to send an email off to check if I was missing anything before writing a few small additions to the documentation or filing a bug report. procps-ng seems to use an ugly hack that involves knowing the limits on the size of a possible command name that I'm not actually sure works totally correctly.
