Lsof Credits I owe an enormous debt to the users of lsof who have contributed to its steady growth. The size of the list of people who have helped me, while it has grown too large to include in the lsof man page any more, is a testimonial to their generosity. First I acknowledge a debt to the work of Dan Bernstein, Michael ``Ford'' Ditto, Tom Dunigan, Alexander Dupuy, Vik Lall, Ray Moody, C. Spencer, Michael Spitzer and those who wrote Berkeley's fstat program, all contributors to lsof's predecessors. I thank Doug McKenzie for his HP-UX proctor program and Rich Kulawiec for pointing it out. Finally I thank all the following people who have used lsof, pointed out its flaws, described its shortcomings, offered suggestions for improving it, supplied code for it, gave me technical advice, and provided test systems where I was able to do development work.
