Nice. It works. Silly me, I didn't think about negative indexes.

The only problem I see now, is that it will display the scheduled process, and
since the process names have different lengths, the alignment will be lost and 
 sometimes it's difficult to follow/read, as an example I just got.

534776 a.out(6928):    -> neo_set_no_input_flow_control
535094 swapper(0):     <- neo_parse_modem
535357 a.out(6928):    <- neo_set_no_input_flow_control

So, if this is not important, I can submit a new patch with the implementation as 
you just described.

Thanks
