I really hate programs like that. "ls" is another one. In a directory with a lot of files, try "ls" and then "ls|cat". The program is inspecting stdout and it behaves differently depending on whether it is a tty device or not.
Looking at the source code for ptree, we see
"Kind of a hack"??? Well, anyway, set the COLUMNS environment variable to the size you want. It's disappointing that behavior like this is not mentioned in the man page, but making the source code available really picks up the slack
we aheva couple of old sun OS boxes, that we are trying to parse /usr/ucb/ps output.

Hi,
I have a program set to read in a text file, change certain characters and then print the altered version to the screen but does anyone know how to save the new version as another text file? And, if possible, how to specify the file name, and perhaps location?
Thanks! (2 Replies)

ptree
ptree(1)ptree(1)NAME
ptree - print process trees
SYNOPSIS
/usr/bin/ptree [-a] [-c] [-z zone] [pid | user] ...
ptree prints the process trees containing the specified pids or users, with child processes indented from their respective parent pro-
cesses. An argument of all digits is taken to be a process-id, otherwise it is assumed to be a user login name. The default is all pro-
cesses.
The following options are supported:
-a All. Print all processes, including children of process 0.
-c Contracts. Print process contract memberships in addition to parent-child relationships. See process(4). This option
implies the -a option.
-z zone Zones. Print only processes in the specified zone. Each zone ID can be specified as either a zone name or a numerical zone
ID.
This option is only useful when executed in the global zone.
The following operands are supported:
pid Process-id or a list of process-ids. ptree also accepts /proc/nnn as a process-id, so the shell expansion /proc/* can be
used to specify all processes in the system.
user Username or list of usernames. Processes whose effective user IDs match those given are displayed.
Example 1: Using ptree
The following example prints the process tree (including children of process 0) for processes which match the command name ssh:
$ ptree -a `pgrep ssh`
1 /sbin/init
100909 /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
569150 /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
569157 /usr/lib/ssh/sshd
569159 -ksh
569171 bash
569173 /bin/ksh
569193 bash
The following exit values are returned:
0 Successful operation.
non-zero An error has occurred.
/proc/* process files
