Hi Craig,

Without that patch, when I try:
      ps/pscommand -o "%p %G{"

I get:
          PID GROUP   {
        12793 warnerjc{
        14486 warnerjc{

Or if I do:
      ps/pscommand -o "%p %%a"

that yields:
          PID %a
        12793 %a
        14497 %a

But with the patch I get these instead:
      error: improper AIX field descriptor
      error: missing AIX field descriptor

Regards,

Jim
