What do you want to see every 0.4s ?

The TaskBrowser can not be programmed as such ('ls' is not a program script
function).

If you *really* need this, the easiest way is hacking it into TaskBrowser.cpp,
you could also extend the taskbrowser with the 'ls' method, and run a script
in another, periodic component which calls ls on the taskbrowser (it must then
have a 'peer' pointer to the taskbrowser).

The TaskBrowser is not meant for such monitoring tasks. Why don't you use the
ReportingComponent, ie the 'ConsoleReporting' version ? It will let you trace
all data ports. See also the PDF/HTML manual of that component.
