Selection criteria are a little weak with fuser. Also, it won't do a global display (i.e., all users, all files). The latest fuser (in psmisc 12) will do sockets, but again selection criteria are rather limited.

My impression from running lsof is that the selection criteria are the reverse of fuser in the sense of being a bit arcane. Also, lsof wants to be recompiled at the drop of a hat....a native implementation using the proc filesystem would probably work better....
