can't we make this:

	ppids = strstr(tgids, "PPid:");

To speed it up a teeny little bit? 8-)

The above could be simplified to:

		while (isspace(*ppids))
			++ppids;

$ cat isspace.c 
#include <ctype.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) { return printf("isspace('\\0')=%d\n", isspace('\0')); }
$ ./isspace 
isspace('\0')=0
$

We also don't need to find and zero this '\n', as:

$ cat atoi.c 
#include <string.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void) { return printf("atoi(\"1234\\n\")=%d\n",
atoi("1234\n")); }
$ ./atoi 
atoi("1234\n")=1234
$

Somebody, I think PeterZ and also Ingo, routinely asks for having {} on
the else part of an if that has {}, please do so.
