[PATCH v3 2/4] proc_pid_fdinfo.5: Make pid clearer in the name and 1st paragraph

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Previously the pid was highlighted through being a tagged paragraph
but not mentioned in the description. Add italics to the path
emphasizing pid and then change the first sentence to include pid in
the definition.
