Lsof calls the executable and shared libraries "text files." The lsof FAQ may be found at: ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/FAQ I have developed a hack which will be released at lsof revision 4.71. A pre-release source distribution of 4.71 only for Darwin is available at: ftp://lsof.itap.purdue.edu/pub/tools/unix/lsof/NEW/lsof_4.71C.darwin.tar.bz2 Note that you must build the lsof executable from that distribution and building lsof requires that you download the XNU headers from www.opensource.apple.com/darwinsource/. Downloading the XNU headers requires an Apple ID and password.
