public static int GetProcessGroup ()

Returns
A int containing the process group ID of the current process.
Remarks
Process groups are used for distribution of signals, and by terminals to arbitrate requests for their input: processes that have the same process group as the terminal are foreground and may read, while others will block with a signal if they attempt to read.
This system call is thus used by programs such as csh(1) to create process groups in implementing job control. The Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall.tcgetpgrp() and Mono.Unix.Native.Syscall.tcsetpgrp() calls are used to get/set the process group of the control terminal.
