@Graviton28 please separate the commands from the output

@Graviton28 please also add info on the jobeff command

Updated the document to focus on checking running jobs, including usage of the 'squeue' command and job resource utilization. Removed sections related to managing software modules.

Addresses review feedback on PR #216: documents the jobeff and seff
commands for comparing requested vs. actual CPU/memory/GPU usage.
Also relabels the last few output blocks that were still fenced as
bash instead of plain output, per the earlier "separate commands
from output" request.
Graviton28 added a commit that referenced this pull request Jul 6, 2026
That content answers a review comment on PR #216, not this PR -
it belongs with the other job-monitoring commands (squeue, scontrol)
rather than in the module management doc.
Verified on Easley: by default (no --error directive), Slurm merges
stdout and stderr into a single slurm-JobID.out file regardless of
whether the job actually errors — confirmed with a job that wrote to
stderr and exited nonzero, and still got no .err file. A separate
.err file only appears if the sbatch script explicitly requests one
via --error.

Everything else in this doc (squeue variants, scontrol show job,
jobeff, seff, watch) was verified working as documented.
