On XSI-conformant systems, they shall be + given in one of two forms: the device's filename (for example, + tty04) or, if the device's filename starts with tty, just the + identifier following the characters tty (for example, "04" ). + +-u userlist + Write information for processes whose user ID numbers or login + names are given in userlist.

Each +variable has a default header. The default header can be overridden by +appending an equals sign and the new text of the header. The rest of +the characters in the argument shall be used as the header text. The +fields specified shall be written in the order specified on the command +line, and should be arranged in columns in the output. The field widths +shall be selected by the system to be at least as wide as the header +text (default or overridden value). If the header text is null, such as +-o user=, the field width shall be at least as wide as the default +header text.

This shall be the textual + group ID, if it can be obtained and the field width permits, or + a decimal representation otherwise. + +group The effective group ID of the process.

The CPU time avail- + able is determined in an unspecified manner. + +vsz The size of the process in (virtual) memory in 1024 byte units + as a decimal integer. + +nice The decimal value of the nice value of the process; see nice() . + +etime In the POSIX locale, the elapsed time since the process was + started, in the form: [[dd-]hh:]mm:ss + +time In the POSIX locale, the cumulative CPU time of the process in + the form: [dd-]hh:mm:ss + +tty The name of the controlling terminal of the process (if any) in + the same format used by the who utility. + +comm The name of the command being executed ( argv[0] value) as a + string. + +args The command with all its arguments as a string. The implementa- + tion may truncate this value to the field width; it is implemen- + tation-defined whether any further truncation occurs. It is + unspecified whether the string represented is a version of the + argument list as it was passed to the command when it started, + or is a version of the arguments as they may have been modified + by the application. Applications cannot depend on being able to + modify their argument list and having that modification be + reflected in the output of ps. + +Any field need not be meaningful in all implementations.
