+ <title>List which files a process has open</title>
+
+ <p>Processes sometimes need to keep files open. They could be files that you are viewing or editing, or temporary or system files that the process needs to work properly.</p>
+
+ <p>To see which files a process has open:</p>
+ <steps>
+ <item><p>Find the process in the <gui>Processes</gui> tab and click once to select it.</p></item>
+ <item><p>Right-click the process and select <gui>Open Files</gui>.</p></item>
+ </steps>
+
+ <p>In the list of open files that appears, you might find some special files called <em>sockets</em>. These are actually a way for processes to communicate with one another, and are not normal files that you can view or edit.</p>
