Semantic CLI tool for process management. Target by port, process id (PID), name or path.
```bash
proc on :3000 # what's on port 3000?
proc on :3000,:8080,node # multi-target: ports + name
proc by node --in . --min-cpu 5 # node in cwd using >5% CPU
proc kill :3000,:8080,node -y # kill mixed targets at once
proc info :3000,1234 # info for port + PID
```
