Description: ps_mem
        ======
        
        A utility to accurately report the core memory usage for a program
        
        Yes the name is a bit weird. coremem would be more appropriate,
        but for backwards compatible reasons the ps_mem name remains.
        
        Install:
        
        `pip install ps_mem` is supported, or rpm and deb packages
        are available for most distros.  Also the ps_mem.py script
        can be run directly.
        
        Usage:
        
        ```
        ps_mem [-h|--help] [-p PID,...] [-s|--split-args] [-t|--total] [-w N]
               [-d|--discriminate-by-pid] [-S|--swap]
        ```
        
        Example output:
        
        ```
         Private  +   Shared  =  RAM used       Program
        
         34.6 MiB +   1.0 MiB =  35.7 MiB       gnome-terminal
        139.8 MiB +   2.3 MiB = 142.1 MiB       firefox
        291.8 MiB +   2.5 MiB = 294.3 MiB       gnome-shell
        272.2 MiB +  43.9 MiB = 316.1 MiB       chrome (12)
        913.9 MiB +   3.2 MiB = 917.1 MiB       thunderbird

        =================================
        ```
        
        The [-p PID,...] option allows filtering the results.
        For example to restrict output to the current $USER you could:
        
        ```
        sudo ps_mem -p $(pgrep -d, -u $USER)
        ```
        
        or to summarize the total RAM usage per user you could:
        
        ```sh
        for i in $(ps -e -o user= | sort | uniq); do
          printf '%-20s%10s\n' $i $(sudo ps_mem --total -p $(pgrep -d, -u $i))
        done
        ```
