My suggestion is maybe not a tool that is ignored, but vast majority of its options: /bin/ps from procps (Linux-specific). I constantly see people blindly typing `ps aux', `ps eax', or `ps -Af' and grepping through the results. This is stupid. ps has so many process selection options, including command name (I regularly use -u, -C, -p, --ppid, and -t). The other aspect is its output formatting. Again, so many fields can be chosen, fine-tuned for either ease of processing or displaying on the screen, but people tend to stick to `x' or `-f' formats for no good reason at all, relying instead on text processing after ps has done its job.
