Just wondering...

[markbabc]

What do you all get when you run pstree?

I dont run Ubuntu anymore but i recently saw someones pstree output from ubuntu and there was alot in it... so do you all want to post your output of your pstree on a normal day? lol this could even be a competition, whomever has the smallest wins :P

Sorry for the n00b question, but what is pstree?

"pstree is a Unix command that shows the running processes as a tree."

Noooooo, I am barely more than a n00b, it would (and does) not mean much to me. I was only being curious.
