Re: [Discuss-gnuradio] Process Naming
I can see that the threads are showing up with meaningful names using `top -H`. Names like `zmq_pub_sink_c1`. The `ps` command doesn't usually show me anything special :( But, `top -H` does which is nice. On Thu, May 4, 2017 at 9:46 PM, Marcus D.

The same goes for GUI displays, the block will have a thread name, but the GUI window display processing happens in a thread named "python".
