ps command

ps vs. htop? https://unix.stackexchange.com/questions/62176/what-is-the-difference-between-ps-and-top-command

If you just run ps, you will only see the processes started by you (the current user).

If you want to see all processes (this is what htop does out of the box), do

ps aux

To get info on a PID, you can just do

ps -fp <PID>

To get more info on the process.

  • -f for the full process information
  • I think you can get away without using the p? that specifies the process, but I’m able to use it without the -p

For user, do

ps -fu <USER>
  • actually here, h means no header lol

ChatGPT showed me ls -fp
