What is the modern equivalent of "ps aux" on macOS Sierra?
To replicate ps aux (BSD style) in the AT&amp;T version of ps, you have to use

ps -Ao user,pid,%cpu,%mem,vsz,rss,tt,stat,start,time,command


This command is compatible with scripts that expect the same output as ps aux.

The only difference is the sort order; ps aux sorts all processes by their start time whereas ps -Ao sorts them by PID.



ps -jef is a shorter command, but it will output different headers.:


USER
PID
PPID
PGID
SESS
JOBC
STAT
TT
TIME
COMMAND
UID
C
STIME
TTY
