I am looking for the BSD and Ultrix equivalents of the kvm routines
available under SunOS.

I need to find the equivalents for kvm_open, kvm_nextproc,
kvm_setproc, kvm_getcmd, and kvm_close (gosh, just a couple, eh!).

I know there's no package like kvm.h, but if anyone knows the methods
to access what's in /dev/kmem, I'd appreciate it.

Replies via email, please.
