active working
hi!
i want to create a list of the active working of the system classified by size and run the list on the monitor in a contolled pattern.Every active work has to appear only once.
Any suggestions?

What do you understand by active working?
Size of what?
Which OS?

I am considering you need to list them by their memory size.You can use sort for the same.

This is something that might help, but untested.

Code:
ps -auxf | tr -d " " | sort -n -t ' ' +3
To list the all the processes which are not owned by root:

Code:
ps -auxf | grep -v root
Now what do you mean by running the list in the controlled pattern..?
