Using the -w (--wait) flag, you can specify a process name, and Procdump will wait for that process start. Upon finding the process started, Procdump will then start watching the process as usual.
sudo procdump -C 65 -w my-application
Proposed Implementation
Looping through /proc/ and reading /proc/[pid]/stat or /proc/[pid]/cmdline to find the provided name.
Should multiple processes match the given name, Procdump should error out (mimicking the Windows version).
