| Jul 5, 2018 at 12:53 | comment | added | doneal24 | Maybe strace -f -e execve ./myprogram ? Doesn't have the problem of trying to shell out another command before your program actually exits. | |

| Jul 5, 2018 at 12:37 | comment | added | robor | @steeldriver I tried that. The output is user-> ./myprog & pstree -p $! [2] 25769 myprog(25769) user-> pstree -p 25769 [2]+ Done ./myprog | |
| Jul 5, 2018 at 12:24 | comment | added | steeldriver | Well you could background the parent, and use $! to immediately get its PID to pass to pstree e.g. ./yourprog & pstree -p $! | |
| Jul 5, 2018 at 12:13 | comment | added | robor | How should I employ pstree? The program I'm analysing finishes in under a second. pstree shows running processes. I'm looking for something that logs the spawned processes as the program runs. | |
| Jul 5, 2018 at 12:08 | comment | added | steeldriver | Have you tried pstree? | |
