When you enter a command it invokes a program. While this program is running it is called a process . It is important to grasp that although there is only one copy of a program held in the file system , any number of processes can be invoked which run this program. When the operating system is started after a boot , a single process is started. ... Any processes that are started from within your shell - such as entering a command - are the children of this process. ...
