I note in addition that:
   ps -e | grep swatch
does not return the swatch processes,
while, for example:
   ps -e | grep httpd
does return the httpd processes.

                This selects the processes whose executable name is given in
                cmdlist.

This suggests that swatch is not an "executable" notwithstanding
that in ps -ef it appears in the same position in the line as
httpd, which is an executable.

I remain mystified.

Mike.
