You can get procps source rpm, install it, and get the tar archive from
the /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES directory (if installed by root). Or you
can go to freshmeat.net, do a search for ps, and get the source code
that way. For any program that comes with Redhat, you can find what RPM
it cam with by first finding the location of the wife, and then using
rpm to find what RPM it belongs to. (Ok - I know it can ge done in one
command...)
type <command name> - gives you the path to the command.
rpm -qf <command with full path> - give you the RPM name.
