That was picking an example from my previous try to work with ps. I was not the admin of the server so no installation of extra programs. Or upgrading ps to the newest version.
The shell scripting I have needed has been typically very simple. Like schedule to copy this file from that server and run this command.(what was precisely all that I was trying to achieve the last time, only the file was compressed. Would have done with .bat, but that was even more difficult) As you say, using it as a glue and build the complexity to the programs behind the shell.
