NAME
getpcaps - display process capabilities
SYNOPSIS
getpcaps " [optional args]" pid ...
DESCRIPTION
getpcaps displays the capabilities on the processes indicated by the pid value(s) given on the command line. A pid of 0 displays the capabilities of the process that is running getpcaps itself.

The capabilities are displayed in the cap_from_text (3) format.

Optional arguments:

--help " or " --usage Displays usage information and exits.

--ugly " or " --legacy Displays output in a somewhat ugly legacy format.

--verbose Displays usage in a legacy-like format but not quite so ugly in modern default terminal fonts.

--iab Displays IAB tuple capabilities from the process. The output format here is the text format described in cap_iab(3). Double quotes encase the regular process capabilities and square brackets encase the IAB tuple. This format is also used by captree(8).
