# psmisc
The psmisc package contains utilities for managing processes on your system: pstree, killall and fuser.
The pstree command displays a tree structure of all of the running processes on your system.
The killall command sends a specified signal (SIGTERM if nothing is specified) to processes identified by name.
The fuser command identifies the PIDs of processes that are using specified files or filesystems.
