MacOS parent PID finder

Fast MacOS Parent PID Finder

This is a simple program that will find the parent PIDs of a process on MacOS.

Why?

Because I want an easy way to test where my shell is running. Some terminal emulators support fonts and colors, while others do not. I want to know which one I'm using, and conditionally re-launch zsh with the correct $ZDOTDIR.
