It's a typo, Reini meant 'tee'.

That works too :)

Right here:

It's not the quantity that matters, it's that the only thing running must
be ash itself, and 'ps' for the brief moment when you're checking that only
ash is running.

Try using "ps -a" to show /all/ processes (including services, for
example). Or try doing it the same way the rebaseall script checks:
grep -E -q -i -v '/ash(.exe)?$' /proc/[0-9]*/exename
