+.TH sh_pidcolors.d 1m "$Date:: 2007-10-03 #$" "USER COMMANDS"
+.SH NAME
+sh_pidcolors.d - Demonstration of deeper DTrace Bourne shell analysis.
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.B sh_pidcolors.d
+{ \-p PID | \-c cmd }
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+This extends sh_syscolors.d by including some "pid" provider tracing
+as a starting point for deeper analysis. Currently it adds the probes,
+
+pid$target:a.out:e*:entry,
+pid$target:a.out:e*:return
+
+which means, all functions from the /usr/bin/sh binary that begin with
+the letter "e". This adds about 34 probes. Customise it to whichever
+parts of /usr/bin/sh or the system libraries you are interested in.
+
+The filename for syscalls may be printed as the shell name, if the
+script was invoked using the form "shell filename" rather than running
+the script with an interpreter line.
+.SH OS
+Any
+.SH STABILITY
+Evolving - uses the DTrace Shell provider, which may change
+as additional features are introduced. Check Shell/Readme
+to see what version these scripts are based on.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.TP
+Default output,

+.SH DOCUMENTATION
+See the DTraceToolkit for further documentation under the
+Examples, Notes and Docs directories. The example files may be
+especially useful as they aim to demonstrate how to interpret
+the output.
+.SH EXIT
+sh_pidcolors.d will run until Ctrl-C is hit.
