proc why - Explain why a port is busy or trace process ancestry

Examples: proc why :3000 # Why is port 3000 busy? (ancestry + port context) proc why node # Show ancestry for the processes named node proc why node –cmd # … or with node anywhere in their command line proc why 1234 # Show ancestry for PID 1234 proc why :3000 :8080 # Several targets: separate arguments proc why :3000 –json # JSON output with port context

Commas still work (proc why :3000,:8080) but are deprecated.
