what is an improved version of the w tool. It finds all processes associated with a TTY (not just those registered in wtmp), and reports all users that are running anything. In particular, unlike w, what will also shows things running in detached screens/tmuxen.

Example output:

$ ./what 
 up 23m56s   4 users  load 0.65 0.41 0.23  procs 1/403
USER     TTY      LOGIN  INPUT OUTPUT WHAT
