From: jackster the jackle Date: 2007-12-14T02:40:42+09:00 Subject: Showing Running Processes in variable I want to capture the list of running processes on my computer. I am to get all the data into my variable with a simple system call: x = `ps -el` My problem comes when I want to display the data back out in a legible format that makes sense. What is the best way to do this? thanks jackster -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
