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).
