python-setproctitle 1.1.10 Setproctitle implementation for Python to customize the process title

The library allows a process to change its title (as displayed by system tools such as ps and top).

Changing the title is mostly useful in multi-process systems, for example when a master process is forked: changing the children's title allows identifying the task each process is busy with. The technique is used by PostgreSQL and the OpenSSH Server for example.
