This is a strange observation. BSD syntax is normally taken to mean
options written without a '-' character in front, like ps aux.

But bizarrely, FreeBSD uses a version of ps that does use a leading '-'
and in which -C is explained as "Change the way the CPU percentage is
calculated by using a ``raw'' CPU calculation that ignores ``resident''
time (this normally has no effect)."

So in neither case is the comment appropriate AFAICT. Fortunately, the
version of ps used by linux does use -C to mean "Select by command
name".

Cheers, Dave
