Even in the TRON future they still have the problem that "ps aux | grep" includes the grep itself.

screenshot from TRON Ares where the villain is trying to restart something and runs "ps aux | grep -i SHV" and then sudo systemctl restart on the pid. the grep list includes their own process.

@th@social.v.st That and xargs -0 are my least favorite things about typing any command line.

function grepp() { grep "$@" | \fgrep -v 'grep '; }
