NAME
pid - Retrieve process id(s)
SYNOPSIS
ppiidd ?fileId?
DESCRIPTION
If the fileId argument is given then it should normally refer to a
process pipeline created with the ooppeenn command. In this case the ppiidd
command will return a list whose elements are the process identifiers
of all the processes in the pipeline, in order. The list will be empty
if fileId refers to an open file that isn't a process pipeline. If no
fileId argument is given then ppiidd returns the process identifier of the
current process. All process identifiers are returned as decimal
strings.
