DIY Process List
================

This project is a test assignment I have completed as a part of a job-hiring
process I was once encountered in. What I was asked was to demonstrate my
skills in .NET and C#, with a slight emphasis on reflection techniques.

Despite I spent whole day writing code and designing UI, the final program
is hardly useful for anyone's daily tasks. However, its code contains
a bunch of helper subroutines which I think may be worth reusing by me
or someone else.


Implementation notes
--------------------

* I didn't use XML comments intentionally. Of course, I know how to use them,
  but in this project the only thing they're going to do is to spoil the code
  appearance.

* Exception handling is quite optimistic in many places, but what are we
  going to do if, say, 'Expression.Lambda' fails? Only die; so let the
  program fail fast.

* There is a plenty of room for UI improvements. For example, I could make
  current process selection persist during the listbox update, or add
  more columns, configurable via header's context menu. Next time, maybe.
