        The <see cref="T:Mono.Unix.UnixProcess" /> class provides the means

      <para>
        No mechanism is currently provided to enumerate all processes on the
        system.  This limitation exists for two reasons:

        <item>
          <term>POSIX doesn't provide a mechanism to enumerate all
          processes, so such functionality wouldn't be portable.  Common
          workarounds include the <c>/proc</c> filesystem, but not all
          operating systems provide that.

        <item>
          <term>Many methods, such as
          <see cref="M:Mono.Unix.UnixProcess.WaitForExit" />, require that the
          target process be a child of the current process.  Enumerating all
          processes on the system would return processes that are not children
          of the current process, and thus these methods would error.
