A test app does a fork, creates children processes. Is there a way to view the procTBL "ps" to be able to see that a process is a "child" process? I know you can see when a child has stopped, but the parent is still running.. but is there a way to see if there are "running" children, some attribute that denotes i'm a child? Or, is there some attribute that denotes the process has running children?
Every process has a parent process id (PPID), allowing you to deduce the parent-child relationships.
The GNU ps "f" option will display the process tree with parent-child relationships.
