ps -axo ppid,pid | grep "THEPID" | awk '{print $2}'

How do I kill a command run from the shell tool? If I just kill

Right. When you issue a command in a shell, you're starting a new
process with its own PID.
Is there some unix command to get the PID of the command that you
just run?
Probably. top gives you a list of all processes. I expect that
you could do something like get the PID of the shell process, then
get the PIDs of its child processes.
