41      <para>
42 +      The <function>sg_get_process_stats</function> takes a pointer to
43 +      an int, <parameter>entries</parameter>, which is filled with the
44 +      number of processes the snapshot contains. The return value is a
45 +      pointer to the first member of an array of
46 +      <structname>sg_process_stats</structname> structures; the number
47 +      of entries in the array is returned in
48 +      <parameter>entries</parameter>.
49 +    </para>
50 +    <para>
51        <function>sg_get_process_count</function> returns a pointer to a
52        static buffer of type <structname>sg_process_count</structname>.
53      </para>
54      <para>
55 <      It provides information on the number of processes and the
56 <      system and the different states they're in.
55 >      These two functions provide information on the process running
56 >      on the system. In the first case lots of detail is provided, and
57 >      in the second case a summary of the states of the current processes.
