Description
Is there any way you can add the ability to see whether a PID no longer exists? Colouring the PIDs a different colour maybe? Should be efficient if you poll /proc

Research direction
Start at the repository's shell entry point and locate how PIDs are currently displayed. Check /proc efficiently to determine whether each PID still exists, then verify that inactive PIDs receive a distinct colour and that repeated polling remains usable.
