Need help with running processes script

I'm doing a script with the Shell. I need that it only show the number of running processes.

Ex:
echo "There are `command` running processes"

Thnx!

Pd: Sorry the idiom. I'm spanish.

Hi.

I know, I saw your first post. Hola!

ps -ef shows all process and wc summarises, so..

ps -ef | wc -l

might help

echo "There are $(echo $(ps -ef | wc -l)) running processes"

Thank you so much!!!!! :slight_smile:

I think that nobody understand me.
