not running on windows

[legrandmawak]

this command requires unix based system.
ps is not a recognized command

That's right. We could probably use something like https://github.com/indexzero/ps-tree or https://www.npmjs.com/package/ps-node to have cross-platform support

Since we're using exec, which is in turn executing via cmd.exe on Windows, what about using tasklist, which is more or less the equivalent of ps on the Windows side? It could totally be missing dependent flags though that I'm not aware of. Time to spin up a new Linux VM to compare 😃 ...

thinking along the lines of setting the exec command to run based on underlying platform vs adding another dependency just to have a single, xplat command... digging into ps-tree a bit more and it looks like that's all it's doing under the hood, running platform specific commands that accomplish the same thing... will also check out ps-node

[jaredly]

that sounds great!

Just in case anyone needs the feature,
I implemented it.

#8 didn't work for me, so I did #9

Is this resolved in the latest version? I am still getting the error: "Error while listening for process end: Error: Command failed: ps -o tty 19044 'ps' is not recognized as an internal or external command...
I am running on Windows.
