            Bug ID: 268052
           Summary: Minor omission in ps man page
           Product: Documentation
           Version: Latest
          Hardware: Any
                OS: Any
            Status: New
          Severity: Affects Some People
          Priority: ---
         Component: Manual Pages
          Assignee: bugs@FreeBSD.org

ps(1) documents -p as follows:

  Display information about processes which match the specified process IDs.

I think it's worth describing its interaction with -d, and that it imples -x. I
suggest:

  Display information about processes which match the specified process IDs. -p
implies -x. When combined with -d, all descendent processes are included.
