    Have you read the man pages for lsof? It may contain what you are looking for. It is rather large, being 2575 lines.
    Code:
    man lsof
    Use the Up/Down arrow keys and Page Up/Down to navigate. Use q to exit the man page.

    Edit: You can make a text file of the man page with this command:
    Code:
     man lsof | col -x -b  > lsof.txt
    This will create the file lsof.txt in your home folder. You can then print it out, if you want.
