# The sysutils/lsof port

## lsof-4.83p8 – list information about open files

## Description

    Lsof (LiSt Open Files) lists information about files that are open by the
    running processes.  An open file may be a regular file, a directory, a block
    special file, a character special file, an executing text reference, a
    library, a stream or a network file (Internet socket, NFS file or Unix domain
    socket).

    lsof(8) runs sgid kmem. However, the code has NOT been audited... you
    have been warned.

    Main use of lsof  will be for writing cross-platforms scripts.
    OpenBSD includes fstat(1), which serves the same basic purpose.
