Subject: [qutebrowser] PIDs on unix
Message-ID: <1858303.1772257967@archlinux>

Florian,

hi.  the M-x tab-select<ESC> is very useful.  but, even so, i often have
trouble tracking down the offending resource consumer when i have to
scroll through all the tabs trying to match PIDs.

if it were possible to copy and paste the entire list (a page like
"history" might be nice). or "download" it.  that would make it easier
(one could write a script).

(if there's some way now, i apologize for not knowing.)

cheers, Greg

https://github.com/qutebrowser/qutebrowser/issues/5673 has a bit on
this.

You can type the PID to filter the completion.
