What were you trying to do?
ps aux
What's wrong:
The man page says that the `u' flag will print the NICE (NI)
field:
u A user oriented output is produced. This includes
fields USER, %CPU, NICE, SIZE, and RSS as described
below.
It doesn't. In fact, only the `l' option will print it, but you
can't specify both `l' and `u' anyway, since they are different
output formats.
I tried this on VAX, RT, and DECMIPS.
What should have happened:
The man page should be changed to conform to the program.
Please describe any relevant documentation references:
