More options for appending process names #139

Closed mcandre closed 4 years ago

mcandre commented 4 years ago

Allow process names to be appended to the default list
Allow process names to be excluded from the default list

These two features will help users to construct practical aliases to the exact progress behavior they desire.

Appending to default list is done with --additional-command. Can be used with PROGRESS_ARGS env. I can't see any use case for exclusion that would not be possible with other existing flags.
