the individual processes.</p>

<p>Starts Pman. It will use the previously saved trace settings
in <span class="code">HOME/.erlang_tools/pman.opts</span>, where <span class="code">HOME</span> is
the user's home directory, if such a file exists. Otherwise
standard trace settings will be used. The return value should
be ignored.</p>
<p><span class="code">Excluded</span> is a list of module names. If the argument is
present, processes currently executing in any of these modules
will not be shown by Pman.</p>
<p><span class="code">start/0,1</span> will fail unless the start-up succeeds
within 20 seconds, whereas <span class="code">start_notimeout/0,1</span> will

<p>Starts a Pman trace window for the specified process.
The return value should be ignored.</p>
<p>The process to trace is given either by its pid or by its

to trace the pid represented as <span class="code"><A,B,C></span>.</p>
