From the ps man page:
Prints only information about processes that are in the process groups
listed in glist. The glist is a list of process-group identifiers
enclosed in " " (double quotes) and separated from one another by a
comma or one or more spaces (or tabs), or both.
The ulist argument is either a list of
user IDs or a list of user IDs enclosed in " " (double quotes) and
separated from one another by a comma or one or more spaces, or both.
You should really try reading the complete man page and then ask questions about it - all of the descriptions are in the man page (in this case).
Can anyone supply me with the man pages for:
omnidatalist
omnibarlist
omnisap.exe
I prefer the source man pages in nroff format.
A clue about the software bundles which supply these man pages is fine as well.

When reading man pages, I notice that sometimes commands are follwed by a number enclosed in parenthesis. such as:
mkdir calls the mkdir(2) system call.
