ps command

Typical output from a 'ps -e' command. 'ps' alone will display processes executing within the environment (experiment the 'notepad' and 'notepad&' to see this difference).
ps

The command 'ps -ef > myout' would have put the output of this command into the file 'myout'. Almost all commands support input and output redirection through a file specification, through '<' or through '|', depending on what is appropriate.

The above example screen also shows the windows toolbar which includes font and mark/copy/paste buttons which all work in the shell environment. These can be switched off, see next example screen. You can also do many other useful short cut functions like drag and drop from explorer into the shell if need be.
