Subject: getting PID of current shell process
Date: Wed, 3 Dec 1997 10:11:13 -0500 (EST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <199712031511.KAA06526@prism.cybercomm.net> (raw)

hi,

i need to have a way to get the pid of the current shell process but there
doesn't seem to be a way to do this easily eg no $PID shell variable.
Is there a reason for this and could you please add it if possible?
the $PPID doesn't help me at all.

thanks

B
