} Uhmm, no.  Here the ps process is a direct child of the login shell:

Is that *before* you changed from your original formulation to use my
version with ps="$(ps -eo ...)" ?

Because:

schaefer<506> ps="$(ps -eo pid,ppid,cmd)"
schaefer<507> print -l "PID: $$" "PPID: $PPID" ${(M)${(f)ps}:#*ps -eo*}
PID: 16182
PPID: 7139
16255 16254 ps -eo pid,ppid,cmd
