ps - reports process status

   Without  options, ps prints information about processes that have the same effective user ID  and  the  same  controlling terminal  as  the invoker. The output contains only the process ID, terminal identifier, cumulative execution time, and the   command  name.

Example output:
# ps
   PID TTY         TIME CMD
 20092 pts/3       0:00 sh
 18249 pts/3       0:00 ps
