ps
USAGE
ps [-aefl] [-u uid]
    -f       show process uids, ppids
    -l       show process uids, ppids, pgids, winpids
    -u uid   list processes owned by uid

DESCRIPTION
The ps program gives the status of all the Cygwin processes running on the system (ps stands for process status). Due to the limitations of simulating a POSIX environment under Windows, there is little information to give. The PID column is the process ID you need to give to the kill command (see kill). The WINPID column is the process ID that displays for NT’s Task Manager program.
