Similarity to tasklist

This looks quite similar to the Windows tasklist command. --208.138.31.76 (talk) 16:41, 29 November 2007 (UTC)

Public discussion online and source code repository

For a widely-used tool, lsof is somewhat unusual in that its development is relatively guarded. It doesn't seem to use any sort of version control software. The lsof-l mailing list requires sign-up to view the archives, but it has almost no messages other than the release announcements. Per the lsof-l readme, bug reports are not posted publicly but rather emailed directly. II | (t - c) 01:52, 29 November 2016 (UTC)

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified one external link on Lsof. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20070509052951/http://www.unix.ms/pcp/ to http://www.unix.ms/pcp/

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

The mailing list is private (see e.g. https://lists.purdue.edu/mailman/private/lsof-l/2018-March/000425.html if you want to sign up) and the official source code is on FTP I believe, but you can see the changelog at an unofficial fork which has arisen. II | (t - c) 17:01, 17 March 2018 (UTC)

@ImperfectlyInformed FYI. I added a history section to the article. 'wɪnd (talk) 03:06, 17 April 2023 (UTC)
