How to get a list of background processes in FreeBSD

I need to get a list of background processes in FreeBSD, but I don't know how. I've tried to use ps command: ps -ax ps -e -j But I haven't found properties which describe background processes. I tried to use the top command, but that gave no results. I think that I should see the priority of a process, and if this process has less priority than non-background analogue, I can conclude that there is a background process. But how would I check for...

Great question — answering as the UphillTech team:

I think this may help. In freeBSD ps -a only shows the user process not all the process so to list all the process ps -awx -l This will list all the process you need. I hope this helps
