	ZAP is an idle process monitor which is used to remove processes from the system if they are no longer performing work. This is often used to enhance security (logging out peoples terminals after they have walked away) or to free up resources on systems which have a limited number of terminal lines, memory, etc. WHO is a small utility which shows the different non-system processes on the system and what each of them is executing. It is a very simple program similar in function to WHAT (except far more limited in scope). Keith Maconi
