[;1m  process_info(Pid)[0m

  Returns a list containing [;;4mInfoTuple[0ms with miscellaneous
  information about the process identified by [;;4mPid[0m, or [;;4mundefined[0m
  if the process is not alive.

  The order of the [;;4mInfoTuple[0ms is undefined and all [;;4mInfoTuple[0ms
  are not mandatory. The [;;4mInfoTuple[0ms part of the result can be
  changed without prior notice.

  The [;;4mInfoTuple[0ms with the following items are part of the result:

   • [;;4mcurrent_function[0m

   • [;;4minitial_call[0m

   • [;;4mstatus[0m

   • [;;4mmessage_queue_len[0m

   • [;;4mlinks[0m

   • [;;4mdictionary[0m

   • [;;4mtrap_exit[0m

   • [;;4merror_handler[0m

   • [;;4mpriority[0m

   • [;;4mgroup_leader[0m

   • [;;4mtotal_heap_size[0m

   • [;;4mheap_size[0m

   • [;;4mstack_size[0m

   • [;;4mreductions[0m

   • [;;4mgarbage_collection[0m

  If the process identified by [;;4mPid[0m has a registered name, also an [;;4m[0m
  [;;4mInfoTuple[0m with item [;;4mregistered_name[0m is included.

  For information about specific [;;4mInfoTuple[0ms, see [;;4mprocess_info/2[0m.

  [;;4mWarning[0m

    This BIF is intended for debugging only. For all other
    purposes, use [;;4mprocess_info/2[0m.

  Failure: [;;4mbadarg[0m if [;;4mPid[0m is not a local process.

[;1m  process_info(Pid, ItemSpec)[0m

  Returns information about the process identified by [;;4mPid[0m, as
  specified by [;;4mItem[0m or [;;4mItemList[0m. Returns [;;4mundefined[0m if the
  process is not alive.

  If the process is alive and a single [;;4mItem[0m is specified, the
  returned value is the corresponding [;;4mInfoTuple[0m, unless [;;4mItem =:=[0m
  [;;4mregistered_name[0m and the process has no registered name. In this
  case, [;;4m[][0m is returned. This strange behavior is because of
  historical reasons, and is kept for backward compatibility.

  If [;;4mItemList[0m is specified, the result is [;;4mInfoTupleList[0m. The [;;4m[0m
  [;;4mInfoTuple[0ms in [;;4mInfoTupleList[0m are included with the corresponding [;;4m[0m
  [;;4mItem[0ms in the same order as the [;;4mItem[0ms were included in [;;4mItemList[0m.
  Valid [;;4mItem[0ms can be included multiple times in [;;4mItemList[0m.

  Getting process information follows the signal ordering guarantees
  described in the Processes Chapter in the Erlang Reference Manual.

  [;;4mNote[0m

    If [;;4mregistered_name[0m is part of [;;4mItemList[0m and the process has
    no name registered, a [;;4m{registered_name, []}[0m, [;;4mInfoTuple[0m 
    will be included in the resulting [;;4mInfoTupleList[0m. This
    behavior is different when a single [;;4mItem =:= registered_name[0m
    is specified, and when [;;4mprocess_info/1[0m is used.

     The call-stack back trace (stacktrace). The depth of the
     stacktrace is truncated according to the [;;4mbacktrace_depth[0m
     system flag setting.
