SNAP is a process control program for the system manager.  It allows 
many different kinds of viewing and manipulations on user or system 
processes.  

SNAP is a very fancy SHOW USERS.  it gives a useful screen of 
information about each user process on the system.  (Optionally, it 
also gives the same stuff about system processes.)  You can get a 
bunch of statistics on the process, you can view what is going on on a 
terminal or write to that terminal's buffer, you can delete a process, 
force an image exit on a process, change priority, suspend or resume a 
process.

        WARNING:  Do not install this program with privs.  It is very 
        dangerous and could seriously compromise your system's 
        security if used by someone with intent to do damage.  Do not 
        make it available to any but trusted systems people.
