my solution to the original post was:-

ps -A -o comm,etime,pcpu,pid,ppid,time,tty,user

to things i noticed from reading the man
1) no spaces btwn args for -o
2) must be in order it is in man

as i needed to know % of cpu as well

ps -ef

here -e stands for every process running at that instant.
there is a lot of additional information that unix stores about each running process.This information can be obtained by using -f,standing for full listing.
