;;; Commentary:

;; Proced makes an Emacs buffer containing a listing of the current
;; system processes.  You can use the normal Emacs commands to move around
;; in this buffer, and special Proced commands to operate on the processes
;; listed.
;;
;; To do:
;; - use defcustom where appropriate
;; - interactive temporary customizability of `proced-grammar-alist'
;; - allow "sudo kill PID", "renice PID"

;;; Code:

(require 'time-date)                 ; for `with-decoded-time-value'

  "Alist of rules for handling Proced attributes.

Each element has the form

  (KEY NAME FORMAT JUSTIFY PREDICATE REVERSE SORT-SCHEME FILTER-SCHEME).

KEY is the car of a process attribute.

NAME appears in the header line.

FORMAT specifies the format for displaying the attribute values.
It is either a string passed to `format' or a function called with one
argument, the value of the attribute.

If JUSTIFY is an integer, its modulus gives the width of the attribute
vales formatted with FORMAT.  If JUSTIFY is positive, NAME appears
right-justified, otherwise it appears left-justified.  If JUSTIFY is 'left
or 'right, the field width is calculated from all field values in the listing.
If JUSTIFY is 'left, the field values are formatted left-justified and
right-justified otherwise.

PREDICATE is the predicate for sorting and filtering the process listing
based on attribute KEY.  PREDICATE takes two arguments P1 and P2,
the corresponding attribute values of two processes.  PREDICATE should
return 'equal if P1 has same rank like P2.  Any other non-nil value says
that P1 is \"less than\" P2, or nil if not.

REVERSE is non-nil if the sort order is opposite to the order defined
by PREDICATE.

SORT-SCHEME is a list (KEY1 KEY2 ...) defing a hierarchy of rules
for sorting the process listing.  KEY1, KEY2, ... are KEYs appearing as cars
of `proced-grammar-alist'.  First the PREDICATE of KEY1 is evaluated.
If it yields non-equal, it defines the sorting order for the corresponding
processes.  If it evaluates to 'equal the PREDICATE of KEY2 is evaluated, etc.

FILTER-SCHEME is a list (LESS-B EQUAL-B LARGER-B) used by the command
`proced-filter-attribute' for filtering KEY (see there).  This command
compares the value of attribute KEY of every process with the value
of attribute KEY of the process at the position of point using PREDICATE.
If PREDICATE yields non-nil, the process is accepted if LESS-B is non-nil.
If PREDICATE yields 'equal, the process is accepted if EQUAL-B is non-nil.
If PREDICATE yields nil, the process is accepted if LARGER-B is non-nil.")
