<B>pid </B>?<I>fileId</I>?<BR>
|

<H3><A NAME="M4">DESCRIPTION</A></H3>
|
|
If the <I>fileId</I> argument is given then it should normally
|
|
refer to a process pipeline created with the <B><A HREF="../TkCmd/open.htm">open</A></B> command.
|
|
In this case the <B>pid</B> 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 <I>fileId</I> refers to an open file
|
|
that isn't a process pipeline.
|
|
If no <I>fileId</I> argument is given then <B>pid</B> returns the process
|
|
identifier of the current process.
|
|
All process identifiers are returned as decimal strings.
