If a terminated process was created by an
    execve(2), the name of the
    executed file (at most ten characters of it) is saved in the field
    ac_comm and its status is saved by setting one of more
    of the following flags in ac_flag:
    AFORK, ACORE and
    ASIG.
The ASU and
    ACOMPAT flags are no longer recorded by the system,
    but are retained for source compatibility.
acct file format appeared in
  Version 7 AT&T UNIX.
