Did I say that? Perhaps?

You can always give a title with the start command, but that's only going
to help when killing from the window list.

The information you want is stored in the ProcessInfoBlock. Process
Commander and a few other apps know how the extract this information for
an arbitrary process, but I've never needed to learn how. TTBOMK, this
can only be done via a device driver that knows how to traverse the SAS.

The easiest way to handle this from the app level is to save away the pid
when you start the app. This is easy with REXX or a suitably capable
shell.

HTH,

Steven
