Thats not Redhat spesific, using 'ps' without arguments will show just a
snapshot of running processes.

The above example is the same as plain 'ps' only -ef shows the paths and
enviroment.

I use a one line script called psv and is used as.
'psv pine' (in this case)

the script looks like;

#!/bin/sh
ps ax | grep -v grep | grep -v ps | grep $1

and is located in the $PATH.
If pine was running then the return would look like.

1636   3 S    0:00 pine

The output is the same as the grep example given at the start of this
message.

Saves having to type | grep bla everytime.
