bug#59407: [PATCH] Add Colors to proced

[Laurence Warne]

Hi, attached is a patch I've recently been working to do with colorizing proced buffers, similar to htop.

In particular, the current Emacs process id is highlighted purple in both the process id and parent process id columns, session group leaders have their process ids underlined, larger memory sizes for rss and vsize are highlighted in darker shades of orange, and the first word in the args property (the executable) is highlighted in blue - I've attached a couple of screenshots.

The way I'd recommend to try it out would be:

(require 'proced)

(setq-default proced-auto-update-flag t)
(setq-default proced-auto-update-interval 1)
(setq proced-enable-color-flag t)

And then M-x proced.

Thanks, Laurence
