For a Linux user to try out a BSD is to reap the great benefit of traveling to a foreign country: you not only learn new things, but you also see old things in a new light.

You might even decide to move there. 🙂

thindil,

@dwarmstrong or back home with some new ideas to implement. 😉 For me, the best thing is Ctrl-T in a console on a foreground process. Many BSD users treat it like something obvious. 😂

@thindil When I try this on a foreground process in the console nothing happens???

thindil,

@dwarmstrong It should send a SIGINFO signal to the kernel, and in return you should get information what exactly the process is doing. Maybe your terminal emulator has assigned this shortcut somewhere? Or the process catch the shortcut. You could try it, for example with Firefox, etc.

@thindil Oh how cool! I tried it out by creating an incremental counting shell script, then as it was running did CTRL-t, which returned:

load: 0.30 cmd: bash 42306 [running] 1.50r 1.50u 0.00s 14% 4400k
