Re: Elisp implementation of list-processes

[Richard Stallman]

    status_notify is a static function in process.c, used to clean up when
    we find exited processes.  It is unclear to me whether
    redisplay_preserve_echo_area is really necessary.  In any case, a small
    DEFUN would seem to be in order.  Not sure what to call it, though;
    "status_notify" is not very informative.  Perhaps "process-clean-up"?

Calling status_notify implements this feature:

    Any process listed as exited or signaled is actually eliminated
    after the listing is made.  */)

So it would be clean to add a function `process-clean-up' to do it.
