That worked nicely, however, winex doesn't have a parent process :(
I wonder what I/O it's hooked to? Andrew M. Hoerter mentioned possibly some
sort of I/O. Now I'm thinking it's attached to a device driver or hardware.

What's PPID and how do I get to it?
"man -k ppid" showed:
getppid [getpid] (2) - get process identification
