[comp.sys.sgi] how to change the process name in INIX?

koenig@carina.tat.physik.uni-tuebingen.de (Harald Koenig) (06/28/91)

Is there a way that a process changes its own name to show the current run
state?  strcpy(argv[0],"new name") doesn't work (in BSD this works, but the
IRIX (3.3.2 and 4.0) ps shows the old name).
