Re: pid_parentpid_cmd for MSWin32 missing

I think I didn't understand what you meant.

this works for me to get what you need:

ps -ef | awk '{print $2,$3,$6}'

or

ps -ef | awk '{$1=$4=$5="";print $0}'

You are likely the first to run version 20150322 under msys. I need a
command that spits out 3 columns:

    PID    ParentPID COMMAND

On BSD you can use:

  ps -o pid,ppid,command -ax

On SysV you can use:

  ps -ef | perl -ane '1..1 and /^(.*)CO?MM?A?N?D/ and $s=length
$1;s/^.{$s}//; print "@F[1,2] $_"'

On Cygwin you can use:

  perl -ne 'close STDERR; /Name/ and print"\n";
/(Name|Pid|Ppid|State):\s+(\S+)/ and print "$2\t";' /proc/*/status |
awk '{print $2,$3,$1}'

Most likely one of those will work on msys. Can you test those and get back?
