@nixCraft I like that "5*" notation
@nixCraft
ps auxf ?

@loudfpv
On #FreeBSD 14, -[dD] options show trees: ps auxd

On ps(1) -f option:

"Show command-line and environment information about swapped out processes. This option is honored only if the UID of the user is 0."

No wonder I did not notice anything different from "ps aux" (ran "ps auxf" as mortal user).

Ah, for more compact output:

ps dax

@nixCraft

@nixCraft MacOS version is less useful IMO because there are so many processes it's hard to track what's going on w/o a dance card. Also, it uses "|" and "\" rather than the graphics characters to draw the tree.
@nixCraft I like to use ```procs --tree``` https://github.com/dalance/procs
