How to examine processes in OS X's Terminal?

I’d like to view information for processes running in OS X. Running ps in the terminal just lists the open Terminal windows. How can I see all processes that are running?

Say I’m running a web browser, terminal and text editor. I’d like to see information for the text editor and web browser.
