STATUS Command
TERM [ \node-name.$terminal-name ]
specifies processes running on a given terminal. If you omit $ terminal-name, 
STATUS reports on processes running on the home terminal of the current 
TACL process. If you omit node-name, the STATUS command uses the 
system specified in range or, if not specified in either argument, uses the 
default system.
USER [ ident ]
specifies processes created by a particular user, where ident is either group-
name.user-name or group-id, user-id. If you include USER without ident, 
STATUS reports on processes whose creator accessor ID matches your user 
ID.
If you specify more than one condition, STATUS reports on all processes that 
satisfy all the conditions.
DETAIL
gives a detailed display of process status.
STOP
specifies that TACL is to try to stop each process for which information is 
displayed (except the TACL process issuing the command), subject to the 
normal rules governing which processes you are allowed to stop. TACL 
displays a confirmation message asking if you want to stop the processes 
specified by the command line. TACL does not indicate whether the STOP 
option succeeds or fails.
FORCED
forces TACL to stop the processes specified by the command line. In this case, 
TACL will not prompt you with a confirmation message.
Considerations
•
STATUS, entered with no range or condition parameters, reports the status of the 
last process TACL created, or for which TACL last paused, regardless of the CPU. 
If that process is no longer running, STATUS reports nothing.
•
The STATUS command displays information for I/O processes when appropriate 
(for example, user 255,255 and the $OSP terminal). To eliminate the display of I/O 
processes, add PRI 199 to the command. For example:
STATUS *, USER, PRI 199
•
A STATUS cpu,pin request displays both processes if the requested process is 
part of a process pair. If you request information about a system-image process, 
TACL displays the status of the single system-image process.
