Description monroyj 1999-09-11 16:10:00 UTC

pstat(8) has an option '-w'; it does not work.
If used, the program returns with the terse usage message.

How-To-Repeat: pstat -n

There is no evidence of such flag in a man page or the code. 
If such an option once existed at 3.1-RELEASE, it has been removed.  Removal 
of such an option will not retroactively apply to an already-installed release.

It has come to my attention that this PR refers to -n and its lack of decent 
documentation, or at least it _might_.

-n seems to be documented decently: it causes device numbers instead
of device names to be printed if another option causes device names
to be printed at all.  The options that cause device names to be
printed are:

-t: broken by recent dev_t changes.  A line number of "0" is printed
    instead of the device name in the "fixed" case where the device
    name is returned by the kern.ttys sysctl.
-v: doesn't actually cause device names to be printed, since it is
    disabled.
