Ubuntu Linux - pstree Command for Linux

There are plenty of commands that can show you how to make use of the system information and the process. A lot of process viewers I have already completed before and I wish to complete few more as well. It seems like pstree is something I should have covered way before.

If you want to know more about your process in your system and want the output being displayed on the terminal.

If it's not installed you can do so.

sudo apt install pstree

You can also make use of the command.

pstree

In such case you can make use of pstree command and it should show you the output below.

And if you notice the screenshot you would realize that the tree shows the process and it's dependencies too.

Have you used this command? Have you made use of the pstree to see the process?

Do let me know if there are any other similar commands as well.
